Outdoor Theatre at Kedleston Hall – The Comedy of Errors

Three Inch Fools theatre company perform Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors against the backdrop of Kedleston Hall and Parkland.

  • Booking essential

Bring a picnic and sit back to enjoy an evening performance of the Shakespeare classic outdoors.

The Three Inch Fools perform Shakespeare’s shortest – and wildest – comedy. The clock is ticking, as the Fools rush to untangle one almighty mess in this farcical tale of long-lost twins, hysterical misunderstandings, and endless mishaps. With musical instruments in hand, they will present a joyous take on this Shakespearean rib-tickler.

7pm start time, picnics welcome (refreshments will also be available to purchase) from 6pm. The performance will last approximately 100 minutes (+ a 20 minute interval).
