Shakespeare's Wake

Programme

As a theatre, it seems fitting that the NVT celebrates the Bard's passing - 400 years to the day. “My hair doth stand on end” (Shakespeare - Hamlet), when one considers the impact of this man's life, so long ago, on our culture and language. Join together in our community to celebrate his incredible theatrical contribution. Through his words we explore aspects of the human condition in an evening of entertainment via extracts from those fabulous tales and sonnets. Meet or become reacquainted with some of those unforgettable characters who chart a plethora of significant life moments through his beautiful poetry.
