‘In love who respects friends?’

Italy 1964, romance, betrayal and too many espressos... This vibrant reinterpretation of Shakespeare’s comedy of young love brings you to the heart of an Italian summer, with a live band playing 60s love songs, puppetry and a slightly smelly dog?

When Proteus travels to Milan and falls for his best friend’s fiancée, he creates a plot to take her hand for his own- conveniently forgetting his girlfriend from Verona, who is closer than he thinks...

Updoor Production’s imaginative and joyful re-interpretation of William Shakespeare’s comedy of romance and betrayal modernises the original text, adding heart, silly humour and creative staging. Join us for a summer trip you’ll never forget!
