Outdoor theatre - The Most Perilous Comedie of Elizabeth I
The Three Inch Fools present a largely historical, totally hysterical, brand new Tudor comedie in the upper garden at Quarry Bank
- Booking essential
Experience this brand new, tudor comedy brought to you by The Three Inch Fools, set within the picturesque gardens.
Elizabethan theatre is flourishing. But will a brand-new Tudor musical romp, in which Good Queen Bess takes to the stage herself, be the making of this heroine or spell the beginning of her downfall?
The stage is set for regicidal rivalries, devious dramatics, and plotting playwrights. Beset by misunderstandings and a script that…let’s just say…needs some work, this production promises to be largely historical, totally hysterical. As the old saying goes…thy show must go-eth on!
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.
