Cymbeline in the Anthropocene is thrilled to announce the second production this month by another of our project collaborators: Willow Globe Theatre Company. The Willow Globe (Y Glôb Byw) is a unique, living, scaled-down version of Shakespeare's Globe in London. Located in rural Wales near Llandridod, Powys, it is constructed entirely of willow trees and branches with a rough thrust stage at its heart.

We are excited to report that the Montana Shakespeare in the Parks production of Cymbeline is now in final rehearsals for their opening night show on Wednesday, 16 June, 2021.
