Two of Shakespeare's rarest plays will be performed at an open-air theatre in Mid Wales.
The Willow Globe, near Rhayader, is set to welcome two debuting companies this summer.
The Arclight Theatre Company from Dublin will be up first, with a performance of "The Two Noble Kinsmen" on Saturday, June 27 at 7pm.
This play, co-written by Shakespeare and John Fletcher, is one of the least performed in the Shakespearean canon.
Paul Cullen will direct the production, which promises to offer a unique mix of drama, comedy, and lyrical beauty.
The following week, on Saturday, July 4 at 2pm and 7pm, The Shed Theatre will present an abridged version of "King John."
This reimagined production, set in post-industrial revolution Wales, features a largely Welsh, female-led ensemble, and includes music inspired by Jeff Buckley and Leonard Cohen.
Evan L. Barker and Iwan Bond direct and design this gothic rendition.
The Willow Globe, an extraordinary theatre woven from living willow, provides a unique setting for these boundary-pushing productions.
