Outdoor theatre - King Arthur and the Holy Fail

The Three Inch Fools present an epic tale of Arthurian adventure and medieval mayhem.

  • Booking essential

In a land of daring quests, dashing knights, and endless jousting, there lived a would-be hero - waiting in the wings - who went by the name of Arthur. When Camelot is rocked to it’s core by a tragic - and frankly improbable - incident involving a large table of an undisclosed shape, Arthur is thrust into the quest of a lifetime. Will he bravely battle through blistering cold and scorching fire to save his beloved realm, or will he crumble as fate refuses to cooperate?

Destiny awaits, chivalry calls, and the quest to end all quests begins. Saddle up - things are about to get legendary.

So, pack your picnics, grab your wet-weather gear or sun cream (or both), something to sit on, and prepare for an enchanting evening. Ticket prices include both productions; it is not possible to book to see only one of the performances.

Babies under 12 months go free. National Trust admission charges do not apply. Both National Trust members and non-members need to purchase tickets. Booking fees apply. Parking is free of charge.
