Circle 67 are proud to present a shortened version of one of William Shakespeare’s greatest plays, King Lear. 

An ageing Lear plans to divide his realm between his three daughters, but blinded by flattery he makes a devastating mistake resulting in a broken family and a fractured kingdom. This fast-paced adaptation focuses on the core themes of power, betrayal, loyalty and love, while depicting the central character’s descent into madness.

Join us in your favourite castle, meadow or pub garden for an hour and a bit of entertainment. Expect powerful performances, dark humour, intrigue and treachery.

We provide basic seating and don't charge for admission; instead we’ll pass our hats round at the end. If you enjoy the show, please give generously as this helps to subsidise some of our indoor stage productions.

As our name suggests, Circle 67 was formed in 1967 to bring high-quality theatre to the Blyth Valley area. With your support, we’ll keep going! We always welcome new members; so if you are interested in joining us, or simply want details of forthcoming productions, please contact us.
