There will be a free performance of Shakespeare’s “As You Like It” at the Youth Hostel beside Okehampton Station this weekend with an all-female cast of travelling actors, The HandleBards, who go from site to site by bicycle.
And what’s the play about? Well – Rosalind and Orlando have been forced into exile in the Forest of Arden. As lovers, they become entangled in a bizarre game of lust, love and mistaken identity. In usual HandleBards style, expect riotous amounts of energy, a fair old whack of chaos, and a great deal of laughter.
Performance from 7pm and there will be a bar and barbecue on site - people are welcome to come along earlier in the day.
