Macbeth – The Handlebards

Wednesday 1st July 2026 – 7pm

Yeo Valley Organic Garden, Blagdon

Join the troupe at Yeo Valley Organic Garden for a hilariously high-octane production of Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’ like you’ve never seen before. Forget the tears and tragedy, our Macbeth is chock full of mishaps, mayhem and mirth.

We all know the story. Three Witches promise Macbeth the Scottish crown and like any normal people would, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth plot to kill the king. Things get rapidly out of hand from there as foul deeds are done, plots unravel and mysterious spirits appear…

Suitable for all ages and apparitions.

The HandleBards are an intrepid three-strong troupe spending the summer touring Macbeth by electric van, bringing environmentally sustainable Shakespeare to venues across the UK.

This is an outdoor production, so please bring a chair or blanket to sit on, a picnic to dig into, and dress for the weather!

 

“Explodes with energy and is a genuine treat from start to finish.” The Stage ★★★★★

“Five stars just don’t seem enough…” The Sunderland Echo
