Set to be a delightful summer event, Bonzo Productions presents Shakespeare in the Open at Chedworth Manor, offering an uplifting adaptation of the bard’s classic comedy, Much Ado About Nothing.

Running from Tuesday 12 to Saturday 16 June 2018, the production will be directed by Ross Aldridge and Adrian McPherson, telling a tale of love, trickery and gossip, with plenty of comedy.

Shakespeare’s classic comedy follows Claudio and Hero’s romance, which comes into trouble when Claudio’s tricked into believing that Hero has been unfaithful. Meanwhile there’s more trickery as Claudio and Hero plan to make Beatrice and Benedick fall in love…

As well as offering a picturesque setting and great entertainment, Shakespeare in the Open will support children’s charity Winston’s Wish, as well as the Friends of St Andrews church in Chedworth.
