The Handlebards at Lancaster Castle
The Handlebards cycling Shakespeare company return to Lancaster Castle this July with their performance of Macbeth.
Join The HandleBards all-female troupe at Lancaster Castle for a bicycle-powered, farcical production of Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’.
Forget the tears and tragedy – this is a frantic, delirious, full-of-beans show like you’ve never seen before.
This is an outdoor production, so please bring your own chair or blanket to sit on, a picnic to dig into, and dress for the weather!

Notes on Performance
- Doors open at 6pm, so bring a picnic and come and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
- Chairs, picnics, blankets and any other low level accessories are welcome.
- In case of rain, please don’t bring umbrellas as they block sight-lines for other audience members. Ponchos and raincoats are just as fetching, so please wear these instead.
