About Summer art season at Berrybank Amphitheatre

The Amphitheatre in Cotswolds will be home to an exciting new performing arts season from 14 June to 04 September.

A rich and varied programme will launch the first-ever Cotswold Comedy Festival, featuring Marcus Brigstocke, Arthur Smith, Jo Caulfield, Hal Cruttenden and Shaparak Khorsandi and other well-known comedians.

With Jazz, Opera, Broadway and West End music, Outdoor Cinema, Family Events, Cabaret, and the Real Garden Festival – a day of outdoor discovery, ecology and music, Shakespeare on bicycles to Illyria Outdoor Theatre’s flying Peter Pan and Opera Anywhere’s sing-along Pirates of Penzance, and master of Cabaret, Marcel Lucont (‘The UK’s favourite Frenchman’) and his witty Gameshow for Adults and Children – Les Enfants Terribles, – there’ll be something for everyone to enjoy this summer at Berrybank Amphitheatre.

This is Shakespeare country, and the Amphitheatre is proud to open with Shakespeare’s Globe on Tour’s production of Julius Caesar – a blistering take on modern-day events – along with The HandelBards’ bicycle-powered, laugh-out-loud production of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night and an exciting new version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream by The Duke’s Theatre Company later in the season.
