Lakespeare is an independent theatre company on a mission to make high-quality theatre accessible to Canberrans and beyond. Visit our webpage closer to show time for more information about the show, the cast and what we do. And don't forget to follow us on Facebook or Instagram.
Even though this is a free event, its important that you register for tickets. Registration helps us to understand likely numbers. This helps our vendors and sponsors. Registration enables us to keep you informed regarding any new developments related to the performance.
What can I bring into the event?
Please bring sunscreen (daytime shows), a rug, friends, family, food and drink. A chair if you want to go in the chair zone. A blanket if it looks cold. We have vendors (more detail provided closer to the show), too, who can provide a range of sweet and savoury food options, coffee and alcohol.
Show information
1. SBTL is an outdoor event and we all must adapt to the weather conditions. The show must go on (and usually does) unless there is a really severe weather forecast or event. So be prepared - there is no such thing as bad weather, there is only the wrong clothes. If we do need to cancel a show we'll contact you via the email you provide in your registration (and we also aim to keep you updated via our social media platforms).
2. Chairs are only allowed in designated areas. So everyone can see, chairs will necessarily be set back from the main playing area.
3. So everyone can see, umbrellas are not to be used during the performance. Patrons should use hooded rain jackets or ponchos.
4. Lakespeare reserves the right to add or remove performances, change venues and/or alter the start times of events. Of course, we only do this for good reasons and give you as much warning as possible.
