Synopsis

Shakespeare's best loved comedy. We have done it before, in the Valley Gardens, with great success. Now we have the chance to do it again on a proscenium stage with the same director. It is romantic, comic and approachable, and starts and ends with music. A brother and sister, spearated by a shipwreck are reconciled, an "affectioned ass" is cut to size by practical jokes and a troop of mischievous gentlemen are taught to behave, but by the end as the Clown says, "the whirligig of time brings in his revenges". And, as in all great comedies, they all live happily ever after.
