Shakespeare's Wanderers Twelfth Night Production

Who are we?

We’re an outdoor touring theatre company called Shakespeare’s Wanderers, which is run by Mark Reed. We’re passionate about creating inventive, bright and entertaining shows for audiences of all ages. We believe that Shakespeare is for everyone, and we’re excited about creating that unique magical feel this summer that only outdoor theatre brings!

What’s this all about?

We planned to put on Twelfth Night last year, but we sadly had to cancel the show due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now we’re very excited to bring it to audiences this July who’ve been starving for a bit of fun and culture! It’s a wonderful play, and our lively new take on Shakespeare's beloved comedy will take audiences back to the roaring twenties for an evening of romance, fun and mischief.

Unfortunately, putting on a great production like this is not cheap. There are so many different costs involved, and our number one priority is always to pay the passionate, talented, hard-working and dedicated creative team behind the show exactly what they deserve. We could raise our ticket prices, but then we might get smaller audiences and end up back at square one. Plus, we think theatre should be for everyone, so we price our tickets fairly to ensure our productions are accessible to the broadest group of people.

So, that’s where (we hope) you can help us out…

What can I do?

You can donate to this crowdfunding page to help us make this show possible. No matter what we raise, the show will go on, but your generosity will help us produce the best show possible and support the wonderful creative team behind it.
