Shakespeare in the Streets brings you Shakespeare – and Bury – as you’ve never seen them before! Along a specially plotted route, taking in some of the hidden (and not so hidden) gems of Bury’s rich history, our audiences encountered performers bringing Shakespeare alive in ways which were funny, fresh and surprising.

Our Sonnet Walks in Bury St Edmunds were directed by Abigail Anderson.

Produced by Abigail Anderson and Sharron Stowe for the Bury Festival in association with the Theatre Royal.

Setting for Sonnet 8 composed by Birgitta Kenyon.

In addition to the performers a great many people have contributed to the Sonnet Walk in a variety of ways, so a huge thank you to: Nick Wells of the Bury Festival, Geoffrey Pickess, Tania at Aviary Ices, Sue Scrivener, Marian and the residents of Church Walks, Sally Waters and Amy Wyllie, Paul Golynia at the Theatre Royal and Carrie Fitton. Carnations supplied buy Flowers for all Occassions.
