In partnership with Verity Lane Market, Canberra's boutique food hall on Northbourne Ave, Lakespeare presents a fast, loose, immersive, Shakespeare-as-it-was-400-years-ago version of our 2022 summer show.

This is Shakespeare unplugged. No costumes, no props. Lots of improvisation and audience interaction. Original music by Jay Cameron. Eat, drink and be merry as we run through our paces bringing language to places you wouldn't normally expect.

As close to the original Shakespearean experience as you'll ever get in Canberra!

Show starts at 6.30pm. Buy your meal and drinks from the Markets before the show or during the interval and head upstairs to the Louie Louie space to watch.

Tickets also available at the door for $20 if not sold out.

ACT Public Health Guidelines in place at the time around the management of COVID-will apply, including sign in with the Check-in CBR app.

Lakespeare is an independent theatre company on a mission to make high-quality theatre accessible to Canberrans and beyond. Visit our webpage closer to show time for more information about the show, the cast and what we do. And don't forget to follow us on Facebook or Instagram.

Our summer season always involves as many free outdoor shows as we can afford to put on. Sales from ticketed events partially fund these, but crowd-sourced donations also help make this possible. Follow this link if you'd like to help out by donating.

Cancellations policy: refunds (exclusive of booking fees) are only available for cancellations requested by ticket purchasers at least one week before the show. In the event that we have to cancel or postpone a show, refunds will apply (exclusive of booking fees).
