We are an independent professional theatre company working out of the Living Willow Theatre and have been registered as a Charity since 1994. We work across the UK and overseas, as well as within our local community. Our home is an organic small-holding in the safe and healing haven of the upper Wye Valley, Wales, where we welcome all comers for workshops, research or performance at the Living Willow Theatre.
We hope you will take a moment to visit the other pages of our website and contact us with any questions you may have.
"Shakespeare without a safety net - brilliant!" Times Education Supplement on work with Drama Plus
Our misson statement: We believe that the works of Shakespeare are common coin, a valuable medium for communication and debate, as well as the resource of theatre and academic study. Our members have broad-based communicative and performance skills and a commitment to working in the community. We work holistically, using drama and particularly the work of Shakespeare as a profound and relevant source. We believe in looking for the truth and having fun - a play is play.
“Good fun. I learnt about the wider issues concerning the play. You provided me with tools that will help me appreciate and understand Shakespeare in the future.” 'A' Level student, London
“Shakespeare Link knows how to make Shakespeare fun and relevant. Ask the hundreds of students who attended its workshops on the World Service tour of Bulgaria - anyone, anywhere in the world, would find common ground in Shakespeare Link.” Gerald O’Malley, Director BBC World Service
The theatre and wet weather cover are available for conferences and corporate presentations; events are managed by Penlanole Organics. For more information e-mail info@penlanole-organics.co.uk
