Kearsney presents ‘Shakespeare in Love’ production
The production will be staged in Kearsney's Henderson Hall from Tuesday, May 7, to Friday, May 10.
KEARSNEY College will bring the stage to life next week with a delightful adaptation of the acclaimed play, Shakespeare in Love.
Directed by award-winning theatre professional Peter Court, the play is a farcical riot of colour, fun, laughter, romance and drama – everything you’d expect from Shakespeare.
When class-crossed lovers, Queen Elizabeth I and Will Shakespeare, meet, the world of Elizabethan theatre gets turned inside out, and the seeds for the greatest love story are sown.
