Rain or shine is a Gloucester based professional theatre company which specialises in outdoor 'Pop-up theatre'
summer tours of classical theatre to castles, stately homes and gardens throughout the u.k.
We have performed classic comedy productions of works by Shakespeare, Sheridan, Goldsmith,
Wilde and Vanbrugh to tens of thousands of happy theatre goers.
Our indoor winter season features original adaptions of classics transformed into
Morecombe and Wise style comedies; always fast, furious and funny, touring small theatres and village halls.
Following our highly successful summer tour of The Importance Of Being Earnest, Rain or Shine Theatre Company is touring ‘Murder Most Wilde’ in winter 2024, a new adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s comic and quirky tale “Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime”, a delightfully silly Victorian comedy chock full of muddled murder attempts and comic confusion.
For our 2025 summer season we are delighted to present to you The Rivals, an 18th Century comedy adventure by Sheridan brims with false identities, romantic entanglements, and parental disapproval. The Rivals is a joyous romp that skewers marriage, class and wealth, and of course featuring Mrs Malaprop with her select words so ingeniously misapplied, without being mispronounced.
