Europe and UK’s most established open air Shakespeare touring theatre company,
Theatre Set-up, returned to mid Wales on Saturday 14th June to perform for the
second time at the newly established, open air Living Willow Theatre, just 4 miles
from Rhayader. The Company performed the great and magical comedy from
Shakespeare, All’s Well That Ends Well with a professional cast of 8 actors,
including one Welsh actress who enjoyed the rare treat to return and perform in
her homeland.
Just over 100 members of the local community came to see the company and were
delighted with the enthusiastic playing, lustrous Elizabethan costumes and
versatility of the cast. The performance was part of a whistle stop tour visiting
over 35 venues in six countries, and this was their one and only visit to Wales this
year before they set off to Stratford-on-Avon to perform at the Great Garden.
Founder of the Living Willow Theatre Sue Best was once a starring member of the
company where she enjoyed playing some of the great heroines of Shakespeare’s
plays.
