As You Like It - The Handlebards at Royal Hospital Chelsea

Pedalling from venue to venue with all of their set, props and costumes on the back of their bikes, the HandleBards are a four-strong troupe of actors who are spending the summer bringing environmentally sustainable Shakespeare to venues across the UK.Join the troupe at Royal Hospital Chelsea for a fantastically funny bicycle-powered production of Shakespeare’s ‘As You Like It’.What’s the play about? Well - Rosalind and her cousin Celia flee to the Forest of Arden, where they bump into Rosalind’s love interest Orlando.

However, Rosalind is disguised as a young man.

Cue some local Shepherds getting involved and the stage is set for a wild ride of wooing, hilarious mistaken identity and the odd wrestling match.This is an outdoor production, so please dress for the weather!
