THIS SUMMER, SOAK UP SOME SHAKESPEARE IN THE GARDEN WITH FULLER'S

After a somewhat disrupted year, we're all in need of a “Summer of Love” more than ever. Open Bar are back with two plays that are full to the brim with comedy, romance and adventure!

Experience Shakespeare as it was intended - informal, raucous and in a spacious pub garden with a drink in hand. Whether this will be your first, or thirty-first night of Shakespeare, you will not be disappointed.

As You Like It

Run away with Rosalind and Celia as the Forest of Arden quite literally lands in your local pub garden this summer.

It may look fresh out of Shakespeare’s day, but Open Bar makes sure it’s as relevant as ever, with original songs to help you follow the plot and six actors leaping around our two-storey set, what more could you ask for this summer?!

Oh yes, a pint in your hand and a friend by your side!

You will gasp at the spectacle, laugh til your sides hurt and be humming the tunes for weeks afterwards. We can’t wait to see you there!

To ensure that customers enjoy Fuller's Shakespeare in the Garden safely, we are following government guidance for outdoor theatre. Tickets are priced at £18 per person. Please get in touch if you have any questions.

Beneath the grandeur, elaborate sets and period costumes of traditional opera lie everyday dramas - characters embroiled in family feuds, relationship issues and the highs and lows of falling in and out of love.

This unique production by Rogue Opera weaves a modern story, with new original dialogue, through opera’s big tunes; the tear-jerkers, the crowd-pleasers and, of course, the drinking songs (all performed in their original languages). Encompassing friendship, betrayal, intrigue, love, laughter and mischief, it’s a great evening of entertainment.

Come and meet some of opera’s most famous characters, up close and personal, in Fullers’ fantastic pub gardens:

Carmen (the Popular One), Mimi (the Good Girl), Escamillo (the Alpha Male) and Rodolfo (the Complicated One)

Follow this awesome foursome as they navigate their way through the pitfalls of their lives and relationships, assuming personas from other operas in a quest to change themselves to find true love. Or maybe they’ll realise that happiness comes from the simple things – good food, good wine* and good company (in a pub garden)...

(*other beverage choices are of course available at the bar)
