Happy May Everyone! You might remember, back in August, we ran a Live Twitter Q&A for our all-female production of Titus Andronicus. Well, it’s taken a little while, but we’ve managed to get it on the blog now for all to see. Have a read below. Any other questions, or if you want to keep […]
Sunday was a glorious day! The Gents with their smooth faces along with a few other friends met up to read Much Ado About Nothing, a play that seemed perfect for the first spring reading and, with it being our first gathering in a while, the energy seemed just right for a comedy. We were […]
Hi everyone! Sorry for the quiet patch, we’ve been working away laying plans for the next 18 months. More on that soon. Today, we want to tell you about something completely different. No, it’s not Python-related (though remind us to tell you about Not The Messiah sometime). It’s something you may have missed… Several [...]
Thanks to everyone who came and helped our York debut sell out! Sorry if you were waiting. The ushers came up to us and said, “sorry, it’s not been this busy for ages, we don’t have enough staff so we’re going to have to start late, do you mind?”. I can tell you, we did not mind […]

Actually, to us, it seems like a pretty obvious choice for an all-female company… and we’re far from the only ones to think so! If you’re interested, here’s some info on some of the […]
Just a weeks to go until our performance at the York Theatre Royal! If you want to catch us on the main stage in our biggest performance to date, you can buy your tickets now directly from the venue. It’s your last chance to see the show for a few months, so get there if […]
Interesting round-up in the New York Times of notable all-female (or at least female-playing-male) productions of Shakespeare. Assuming it’s no-coincidence that Donmar’s Julius Ceasar opened there last night. One interesting thing to note is that, in their round-up, they mention The Globe’s 2003 productions (including Taming [...]
Hello Shakespeare lovers! So… We’re all back and fully recovered from the adventure that was Edinburgh. We missed summer completely but it was all worth it – what an amazing run we had! More on that another time, though. For now, we are back, refreshed, uplifted and ready to get working on our performance for […]
Thrilling news! We’ve just found out we’re won the Meryvn Stutter Spirit of the Fringe Award! Fringe legend Mervyn gives out about seven of these awards each year, to talented companies whose shows capture what the Fringe is about. We’re very honoured to join the prestigious list of winners, which dates back to 1992. The [...]
A lot of you out there have been asking us a lot of questions about the company and our production of Titus Andronicus, so we’re happy to announce we’re going to have a live twitter/facebook Q&A this week. Just tweet your question with the hashtag #SFGqa and we’ll answer 4pm – 5pm this Thursday, 22nd […]
