AN OUTDOOR production of Shakespeare’s Henry V is waiting in the wings at Oxford Castle.

Oxford-based Creation Theatre’s production runs from August 17 to September 14 at Oxford Castle Unlocked’s courtyard.

And the theatre company is keeping its fingers crossed for some sun after last year’s washout summer badly affected its outdoor productions at the Said Business School.

Chief executive Lucy Askew said: “There’s a nice mixture of old and new for us on this show.

“It’s lovely to be heading back to Oxford Castle, where Creation hasn’t performed since 2008, but we’re taking on a new challenge of a play we’ve never performed before.”

Bookings open on Thursday.
