Open Air Shakespeare Festival

Following last year’s critically acclaimed sell-out season and as part of their Open Air Shakespeare National Tour 2004, the Robert J Williamson Company brings two of Shakespeare’s best loved romantic comedies to Holland Park Theatre open air stage - Twelfth Night starring Wayne Sleep, Norman Pace and Carly Hillman, and Much Ado About Nothing starring Norman Pace, Carly Hillman and Robert J Williamson. The two productions will be at Holland Park’s open air theatre for eight performances only from Tuesday 10th to Sunday 15th August 2004.

The Robert J. Williamson Company was described by the BBC last year as "Britain’s largest and best loved open air Shakespeare Company".

The R. J. Williamson Company is in its tenth anniversary year and without Lottery or Arts Council funding, actor manager Robert J. Williamson has led the company to become one of Britain’s leading Shakespeare Companies.
