A Bard’s Tale – the greatest plays Shakespeare never wrote

The cast perform a full length play in the style the greatest playwright that ever lived.

A Bard’s Tale has been performed at the Pop-up Globe and the Hawaiian Improv Festival and of course – it’s different every night!

“An impressive feat in improvised performance. Well worth a watch!” Theatreview

“A unique, unexpected and uncanny show. This show is a testament to the clever and quick-witted talents of its players.” Mac + Mae

“Spontaneous laughter that is pure and it’s bloody funny. This show is as good as any improv you’ll see in the modern world.” The Speakeasy

No audience member is brought up on stage, so you can relax and enjoy the show from the comfort of your seat.
