Since January I have been rehearsing for a play that takes place on the evenings of 12th-14th July.
It's Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing and this version is set in 1919 just after the First World War and I'm playing the villain Borachio and I get to wear a nice First World War soldier's uniform (though I've exercised a bit much since my measurements were taken and the costume's now a smidge tight) and be a bastard so I'm having fun.
It's an outdoor show performed at the grounds of the beautiful
Anglesey Abbey with the house itself being the backdrop of the second half of the play. It's by my local drama group called Viva (who I did a play with last year too) and performed as part of the Royal Shakespeare Company's Open Stage event.
