        Will Shakespeare has a deadline, no money, and absolutely no idea how to finish his next play. Then he meets Viola de Lesseps—clever, fearless, and determined to follow her dream of performing on the stage, despite a world that says she cannot. 

        The result is Shakespeare in Love—a witty, fast-moving romantic comedy bursting with mistaken identities, sword fights, backstage chaos, soaring passion, and the irresistible magic of live theatre.

        Funny, heartfelt, and full of spectacle, this is a sparkling night out for anyone who loves romance, laughter, and a little theatrical mischief.
         



        Because our actors perform close to you, we are unable to let guests in once the show begins so, please allow plenty of time to find parking and get settled before the play starts at 7:30pm. Thanks so much for your understanding.

        Wheelchair accessible seating is available upon request - please phone 0508 iTICKET (0508 484 253) to book this in directly!
