Highly acclaimed theatre company, Reading Between the Lines, are celebrating Shakespeare’s 400th birthday by bringing their hugely popular Twelfth Night to South Hill Park Amphitheatre RG12 7PA, between 9th & 11th June.

As presents for the bard, the company are offering 2 pairs of tickets to the show on Wednesday 9th June to anyone who can tell them what Shakespeare’s only son was called.

To enter; just email your answer to info@readingbetweenthelines.co.uk and the winners will be revealed on Monday 6th June.

With incredible original music, performed and sung life by the professional actor-musicians, audiences can look forward to a fun, summer time night out with the vibrant atmosphere of a live music gig.

The show takes place in the hidden seaside haven of Illyria in the summer time, where our party loving Illyrians are suffering from chronic hangovers. Cutting through this madness, however, is the shipwrecked Viola, the epitome of courageous woman. Dressed as a man to survive what could be a hostile world, Viola’s energy, courage and good fortune spark Illyria back to life, reawakening the spirit of love.

RBL’s shows have all received numerous five star reviews, with their last receiving eight of them. Twelfth Night is a joyous show, suitable for all ages and, as company director Dani Davies said, they’re thrilled to be performing in this space. “As a company, we’re really excited. It is such a unique, beautiful opportunity and we can’t wait to hear the music and see the performances under the trees, in amongst the wood.”
