The Three Inch Fools present a largely historical, totally hysterical, brand new Tudor comedie 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!

Bring your own cushions, and camping-chairs and join us on our 10th anniversary open-air adventure. Come prepared for the weather - the performance will continue come rain come shine!
