FROM THE BARN THEATRE ARCHIVE

The Thwarting of Baron Bolligrew

by Robert Bolt
Directed by Keith Thompson, Winifred Butler
31st December – 9th January 1970

A delightful play for children and the young at heart in which Baron Bolligrew and his stupid henchman Blackheart oppress the peasants, especially the egg-painter Obidiah Bobblenob. See how Sir Oblong Fitz-Oblong, aided by a magpie, thwarts the Baron and a magician with hilarious consequences.
