Outdoor theatre: 'The Secret Diary of Henry VIII'

Join us on the lawn for this open-air theatre performance of 'The Secret Diary of Henry VIII - How To Keep Your Head in the Tudor Court' by The Three Inch Fools.

  • Booking essential

The Three Inch Fools present an essential guide on how to keep your head in the Tudor Court. Unexpectedly thrust into the limelight, young Henry navigates the ups and downs of courtly life, and all whilst fighting the French (again) and re-writing religion. The Fools hit the road with this brand new comedy – a mad-capped take on Britain’s most epic monarch, and those infamous wives.

Running time: 120 mins. Suitable for children ages 8 and over.
