Outdoor Theatre: King Arthur and the Holy Fail - Performed by the Three Inch Fools

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. But when Camelot is rocked to its 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.

6:30pm start time, gates open from from 5:30pm. The performance will last approximately 100 minutes (+ a 20 minute interval).
