So, escape the troubles of the day and embrace the Great British elements with an evening of open-air Shakespeare?

‘If there really is such a thing as turning in one’s grave, Shakespeare must get a lot of exercise.’ ... and turn he will...

This was not an easy decision to make and we waited as long as we could before a final decision was made, but due to the uncertainty that the Covid-19 pandemic will bring us over the next few months, we think it’s only right to not put our cast, crew and audiences at risk. The Pendley Shakespeare Festival is a home away from home for a lot of us, bringing new faces and old friends together with a common interest for 70years. This is a blow for sure. However !
