East London Shakespeare Festival is heading to Lauderdale House with sparkling rom-com Much Ado About Nothing.
Sun-soaked mischief & romance under the Mediterranean stars. Set against the luxurious backdrop of a modern-day Messina, this opulent tale is brimming with wit, trickery & mischief with heart coming out on top. With ELSF’s trademark contemporary twists and turns, high-energy party numbers and audience participation. A family friendly night!
The East London Shakespeare Festival (ELSF) merges the contemporary culture of London with the inspirational storytelling of Shakespeare’s plays in outdoor parks and community spaces across London. They launched in 2021 with a magical, riotous, sold-out production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream (receiving an Off West End Award Nomination for Best Company), an 80’s inspired Twelfth Night in 2022 and another Off West End Award Nomination for Best Company Ensemble for Romeo & Juliet in 2023. A festival vibe will be encouraged with gates opening an hour before the show, so bring a picnic and why not sign up for a mask-making workshop run one of our in-house-party-goers (actors) – make your own mask and be part of the masked party!
Parental Guidance – the play features kissing. The show is directed by Rosie Ward. The producers – and co-directors of the East London Shakespeare Festival – are: Ursula Early & Rosie Ward.
