Rob Lloyd is Shakespeare's Fool.
About this Event

Actor/Comedian/Director Rob Lloyd has always been drawn to the works of William Shakespeare…particularly his fools.  

Not the tortured and troubled heroes. Not the brave and gallant leads. Nope…for Rob it’s always been the funny, silly, court jesters and comic relief that he really relates to. These characters reflect on the faults and follies of others. But do these characters also reflect on Rob’s own life? 

From Puck to Touchstone to Bottom; join Rob as he takes a look at what makes these timeless characters tick and see whether they make him tick too. 

Written & Performed by Rob Lloyd (Thank God You’re Here, Bertram Poppingstock: Problem Solver, Who, Me.) 

Directed by Kate Weston (A Twist of Fate, Melbourne Shakespeare Company)
