Add Shakespeare in Love - Mickleton Village Hall to your Itinerary

A person dressed in Shakespearean clothing, holding up a moustache on a stick in front of their face. Poster, 'Shakespeare in Love'.

About

The Castle Players invite you to experience a heartwarming tale of love, theatre, and passion!

Based on the Oscar®-winning film, Shakespeare in Love follows young Will Shakespeare, a penniless playwright struggling with writer's block. In debt to theatre owner Philip Henslowe, Will agrees to give him his new comedy, Romeo and Ethel the Pirate's Daughter.

But everything changes when Will meets the daring Viola de Lesseps, a noblewoman with a secret passion for acting.

Disguised as a man, Viola auditions for Will's play, and what follows is a whirlwind romance that inspires the legendary love story, Romeo and Juliet.

Expect sword fights, mistaken identities, and a barrel of laughs in this enchanting tale of poetic love.
