TUESDAY 1ST SEPTEMBER 6:30-8:30PM The HandleBards are a four-strong troupe of actors who are spending the summer bringing environmentally sustainable Shakespeare to venues across the UK. Join the troupe at Sissons Barn for a fantastically funny bicycle-powered production of Shakespeare’s ‘As You Like It’. Rosalind and her cousin Celia flee to the Forest of Arden, where they bump into Rosalind’s love interest Orlando. However, Rosalind is disguised as a young man. Cue some local Shepherds getting involved and the stage is set for a wild ride of wooing, hilarious mistaken identity and the odd wrestling match. BOOK HERE
