Theatre is about to truly rise to the top in Cambridge, when The Varsity Hotel & Spa hosts A Slice of Shakespeare on 21 August.

Hosted on the hotel’s impressive roof garden, the event allows you to enjoy pizza, Prosecco and panoramic views while enjoying a dose of the Bard.

Curated by the Cambridge Shakespeare Festival, the skyline theatre features a recital of a Shakespeare sonnet and an excerpt from As You Like It.

Acted out in full period costume and set against a backdrop including the city’s historic colleges, it’s bound to take Shakespeare’s work to new heights.

Attendance is free, but priority A Slice of Shakespeare tickets are available to book for £15, that includes a pre-theatre glass of Prosecco and a pizza at Six, the hotel’s brand-new restaurant on the sixth floor.

The performance starts at 7pm. For more information on other Shakespeare events, look here.
