Details
Valentine and Proteus are best friends until they fall in love with the same girl. Having travelled to Milan in search of adventure, they both fall for the Duke's daughter Silvia. But Proteus is already sworn to his sweetheart Julia at home in Verona, and the Duke thinks Valentine is not good enough for his Silvia. With friendship forgotten, the rivals' affections quickly get out of hand as the four young lovers find themselves on a wild chase through the woods, confused by mistaken identity and threatened by fierce outlaws before they find a path to reconciliation. Open rehearsal. Join our Associate Director Nick Bagnall and his company of actors as they bring their rehearsals for The Two Gentlemen of Verona to the Hornby Library. Enjoy an exclusive glimpse into how a play is rehearsed to bring Shakespeare's words and stories to life; there may even be a song or two! The Two Gentleman of Verona is a production created with Shakespeare's Globe, which will tour nationally and internationally this summer, before returning to Everyman in October.
