PEEL Castle will host another Shakespeare play this month with All's Well That Ends Well being staged over four nights.
Theatre Set Up, which has been performing plays at the castle for 22 years, will again be the production company behind the show.

Manx actor Richard Plumley, who has featured in the Dalziel and Pascoe TV series as well as other Shakespearian productions, will take on the starring role in the play.

All's Well That Ends Well tells the story of Bertram, who assumes the title of Count of Rossillion upon the death of his father.

The play centres around his relationship with Helena, the orphaned daughter of a doctor who for years lived in the Rossillion household under the care of Bertram's mother.

Helena develops a crush on Bertram but doesn't dare to tell him.

When the King of France is taken ill Bertram has to attend the King's court.

Helena follows him and provides a cure for the King who, in return, offers her the choice of the hand in marriage of any of the bachelors in his court.

She chooses Bertram but he feels Helena is not worthy of him.

But Helena is a determined woman who embarks upon an elaborate plot to get her man.

Theatre Set Up is a charitable organisation which relies heavily upon sponsorship and donations.

It also relies on volunteers giving up their own time to help out at shows and needs people to be ushers and to sell tickets on the four nights of the Peel Castle show.

If you can help ring 843404 or 246877.

The play is on from July 24 to 27 at 7.30pm.

Tickets are £14 for adults but £12 if bought in advance.

There are concessions for group bookings of more than 20.

For tickets contact the Villa Marina on 694555 or go to www.villagaiety.com or from Celtic Gold and the House of Manannan shop in Peel.

Nothing - it is an acceptable downside for our relationship with the UK and the EU
Pay for travel insurance to the UK for all Island residents
Cut ties with the UK and align itself with a different jurisdiction
