About the Event
William Shakespeare is stuck. Like, really stuck. Blank parchment stuck. He is trying to write a new masterpiece, and he has the weight of his company's eager return to the stage on his shoulders. What's more, on top of making the best sourdough bread ever, his rival Ben Jonson has a new play in the works... Not to worry, the Bard has an idea already!
Since he might need a bit more than that, he has decided to pick your brains and make sure this new show is the smash hit it is promising to be. Join the Bard for this solo show 'delivered to perfection' (Telegraph), for an ‘unforgettable theatrical experience' (Dame Helen Mirren, Patron) made up of classic monologues and plague quarantine travails.
Help Shakespeare write King Leonardo in this "irresistible*", “funny and moving, not to mention, immersive**" new play.
