Energetic and invigorating, Play In A Day is Bell Shakespeare’s lively script reading series celebrating rarely read classics.
Actors and director have one day together as a group before standing script-in-hand in front of an audience, the bare-bones reading allowing the words to take centre stage.
KING JOHN
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Margaret Thanos
If you attended In A Nutshell in 2022, you will remember Blazey Best’s heartbreaking performance as the grief-stricken Constance from King John. Since then, we have received numerous inquiries from audience members curious about the play.
King John is one of Shakespeare’s least performed works, yet it contains one of the most poignant and emotional monologues in his canon. It tells the story of King John’s turbulent reign, and his coldblooded determination to keep hold of the crown. Don’t miss this unforgettable Play In A Day, directed by Margaret Thanos and staged in The Neilson Nutshell on Shakespeare’s birthday.
