Shakespearean actors exit, pursued by a goose
NOT too many ducks know their Shakespeare, sadly, but the mallards at Freightliners Farm in Holloway are a different breed. The high jinks of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night found an unlikely home at the farm in Sheringham Road this week, with families, theatre-lovers and the odd goose all joining in the fun.
The open air performances by the Principal Theatre company told the Bard’s classic story of separated twins, unrequited love and cross-gartered stockings with a 1940s wartime twist.
The players will continue their open air ribaldry at Coram Fields in Bloomsbury for the next two weekends.
