Macbeth in 40 minutes? Romeo & Juliet in 40 minutes? Both shows performed by only 4 actors in one evening! 440 Theatre bring their ‘Double Bill’ of two of Shakespeare’s Greatest Tragedies transformed into outrageous, fall-on-the-floor comedies. Genuinely, not to be missed!
You might have seen Shakespeare before but never like this! Four Forty have been delighting audiences up and down the country with their fast paced, in your face, hysterically funny productions. Offering an alternative take on some of the world’s most famous plays. Their inimitable style and charisma have set them apart as one of the hungriest and playfully ambitious travelling troupes around.
As part of a double bill, 440 will be performing Macbeth and Romeo & Juliet all in the space of one evening! Act One sees the 440-team wrestle with a side-splitting Macbeth (Yes, a comedy)! followed by an even more outrageous Romeo & Juliet in Act Two. 440 Theatre are 4 actors delivering exciting, engaging, and energetic pieces of theatre in 40 minutes. Performing in spaces great and small, their work is playful but never lacks focus.
Stripping the narrative to its core 440 Theatre keep the essence of Shakespeare’s words alive to help his magnificent stories shine at the heart of their shows. Anarchy is equally balanced with a safe and family friendly environment which keeps our audiences relaxed, engaged and safe in the knowledge that they’re in good hands!
Gates open at 5.30pm, so you'll have plenty of time to enjoy a pre-performance picnic.
