Bard news

Both Mr G and the HB enjoy going to performances of plays by popular Midlands playwright William Shakespeare.

So vibrant, thrilling and moving was a recent performance of Henry V, that they are going a second time - accompanied by an enthusiastic 'Bard beginner' who has never seen the play before.

In fact this will be only the second time that this gent has seen a Shakespeare performance.

His first was a recent humdinger of a Macbeth. He was gripped.

Here's hoping he has as good a time on Saturday.

No pressure, Will.

There's still time to catch this Royal Shakespeare Company performance. It's in repertory in Stratford-upon-Avon until March, before moving to a venue in London.
