Much Ado About Nothing in Windmill Gardens

Brixton Windmill 100 Blenheim Gardens, London, United Kingdom

Saturday 20 July, 6pm Open Air Theatre in Windmill Gardens Much Ado About Nothing with Open Bar Theatre BOOK HERE Tickets £14 / £12 / £10 via www.brixtonwindmill.org Shakespeare was master of the romcom, and this is his finest: warring ex-lovers, a ruined wedding, and an aptly named villain,  John the Bastard. Gossip, wit and jealousy abound in this merry romp. Can everything be resolved by a bungling neighbourhood watch and one final piece of trickery? Six actors and Open Bar Theatre’s trademark two-storey set will take over Windmill Gardens for this hilarious, fun Shakespearean classic this summer, in full Elizabethan costume and with original songs by their resident composer that you’ll leave singing all summer long, this is Shakespeare for everyone to enjoy, from the aficionado to those who “don’t do Shakespeare”. Bring a picnic or grab a drink from our licenced cafe at Brixton Windmill Centre and enjoy an evening of Shakespeare that is plenty of fun for all! Run time The performance lasts approximately 2 hours including a 20 minute interval. Assistance dogs and well behaved dogs on leads are welcome.

Learning flamenco allows children to develop a strong sense of rhythm and musicality, excellent physical coordination and an appreciation of the rich cultural heritage of this art form from Andalucia.

WHAT TO WEAR:
Children should wear clothes they are comfortable moving in. There is no need to buy flamenco shoes for your child's first flamenco classes but we will be doing some stamping of our feet so please wear comfortable sturdy shoes that will not slip off your feet too easily. Ideally they should wear a closed toe shoe with a small sturdy heel. For those wishing to use a skirt please wear one with enough volume and length that allows it to be picked up and moved around comfortably.
