It is Shakespeare's birthday! Here is the crown - on loan from The Royal Shakespeare Company - that Richard will cycle from Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare, all the way to Theatre Royal Winchester where he will place it upon the head of actor Lawrie Morris who will play Macbeth this summer.
On Saturday 23 April Richard will start his journey at 7am from The Royal Shakespeare Company and expects to arrive at Theatre Royal Winchester at around 6pm.
Over the years Blue Apple past productions have included Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, Much Ado About Nothing, The Tempest and Hamlet. This summer Blue Apple will stage Macbeth at Theatre Royal Winchester.
