Improvised Shakespeare comedy to bring big laughs and surprises to Norden Farm

Impromptu Shakespeare, a leading ensemble company, will be making it up as they go along when they come to Berkshire this autumn.

The group, which has been a smash hit at the Edinburgh Fringe and Bristol Shakespeare Festival, creates an all-new show every time based on audience suggestions.

With story and verse improvised in the moment, the show promises priceless wit, lyrical smarts, romance, and a dash of double-crossing.
