★★★★ THE REVIEWS HUB
“a masterclass in the absurd… a hilarious, once-in-a-lifetime production”
HandleBards shows are joyful, irreverent, and very funny, combining multi-rolling, live music, audience participation, and skilful text work. This production marks the company’s first indoor venture, successfully translating the vibrant communal spirit of their outdoor performances into the intimate setting of the Shakespeare North Playhouse.
