When is this event?
- 6th July 2025
We are so delighted to be welcoming back The Three Inch Fools to The Dell for what is always such a fun filled evening for all the family. The Most Perilous Comedie of Elizabeth 1 is a stage set for regicidal rivalries, devious dramatics and plotting playwrights.
The performance will be on our lawn on the evening of Sunday 6th July, with plenty space for you to bring your own picnic rugs and deck chairs. You are very welcome to bring your own food, but we will be running a bar so no BYOB.
