The company is a five-strong troupe of actors with a range of instruments, travelling with set, props, costumes and camping gear, performing a highly imaginative and vibrantly musical take on Shakespeare’s plays.

The Fools perform Shakespeare in almost any kind of setting - to date, they have performed at castles, stately homes, gardens, churches, market places, village greens, an old fire station, a medieval crypt, a crowded pub and a garlic farm.

The Three Inch Fools are performing 68 times at more than 60 venues across the UK this year , including National Trust and English Heritage properties, cathedrals, churches, village greens, castles and many other places besides.

The audience are invited to bring picnics from 6pm. Visit www.threeinchfools.com to book or for more information.
