KATS take an irreverent look at The Bard in Everyone's Talking About Shakespeare

Kennet Amateur Theatrical Society (KATS) have a question for you.

How much do you know about Shakespeare?

Yes, you know the plays and the sonnets, but how about the counselling Romeo and Juliet had from a psychiatrist?

Brush Up Your Shakespeare from Kiss me Kate?

What happened when Shakespeare's agent wanted him to shorten Hamlet's soliloquy?

Why Macbeth's three witches must go shopping for substitute ingredients

And why Mel Brooks' Men in Tights is relevant to modern drama.

These and many other questions will be answered by a variety show with lots of songs and comedy taking an irreverent look at The Bard under the title Everyone's Talking About Shakespeare, which KATS are performing from Thursday, August 29 to Saturday 31 at Bucklebury Memorial Hall.

Tickets £12, available from their website KATS.org.uk include a light supper.
