Director Robert Petty has produced a lively, funny, pacey version of Shakespeare’s knockabout comedy lasting just one and a quarter hours with no interval.

Robert has worked with theatre company with Pentabus, as well as spending many years as head of drama at William Brookes school and over the last five years, he’s directed Shakespeare as far afield as Peru and India.
