Shakespeare on the Beach returns to Margate Main Sands

Shakespeare on the beach

Shakespeare on the Beach returns to Margate with a performance of Love’s Labour’s Lost.

Phoenix Community Events – created by staff of the Theatre Royal Margate after being made redundant – have teamed up with Changeling Theatre to bring the production to the main sands.

In the Shakespeare play the King and three friends take an oath dedicating themselves to a life of study, avoiding the company of women for three years.

No sooner have they made their vow the Princess of France and her ladies-in-waiting arrive, presenting the men with a severe test of their high-minded resolve.

Widely believed to be the prequel to Much Ado about Nothing, this early Shakespeare promises luscious costumes and a few surprises, including an original music collaboration with Kent Arts Festival, Jam on the Marsh.

The show takes place on July 16 from 7.30pm.

Tickets are on sale now with the price of the deckchair included.

Adults £21, Under 16s £13.50 plus booking fees, Book now
