Pedalling from venue to venue with all of their set, props and costumes on the back of their bikes, the HandleBards are a four-strong troupe of actors who are spending the summer bringing environmentally sustainable Shakespeare to venues across the UK.
Join the troupe at Pontefract Castle for a bicycle-powered production of Shakespeare’s ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ like you’ve never seen before.
In usual HandleBards style, expect riotous amounts of energy, a fair old whack of chaos, and a great deal of laughter.

Adults: £19 plus £1.60 booking fee
Child (5-16y): £11 plus £0.92 booking fee
Under 5s: free and no ticket required
Disabled people and registered carers: £19 plus £1.60 booking fee (price of 1 adult ticket, valid for 2 people). Proof of carer status required*.
