Shakespeare Revue 2004
Shakespeare Revue took place at the Eastgate Theatre & Arts Centre in Peebles on the 26th and 27th March 2004.

Part 1 included "Shakespeare's Canon", written by local teacher and writer Douglas Roberts. A frantic romp through the best of the Bard, the show was presented by the group's youngsters. This was followed by Shakespearean heroines performing soliloquies from Shakespeare, as well as thoughts as imagined by local poet, Ian McFadyen.

Part 2 was a production called "Gentlemen of the Shade", created especially for the revue by Richard and Fiona Forsyth. An adaptation of Henry IV Parts 1 & 2, it featured additional material from Richard II and Henry V. The play focused on the story of Falstaff and asked serious questions about the nature of honour, authority and the relationships between women and men.
