We are delighted to welcome The Pantaloons for a special performance of The Importance of Being Earnest in our spectacular gardens!

Everybody loves Ernest. In fact, Cecily and Gwendolen are both engaged to Ernest. The only trouble is, he doesn’t exist. Or does he…? Wilde’s comic masterpiece gets The Pantaloons treatment in their anarchic take on the classic comedy of manners.

This energetic and musical production from the critically-acclaimed company infuses Wilde’s witty words with snappy new songs and frantically funny physical theatre to give this perennially popular play a hilarious contemporary twist!

Gates will open at 6:00pm and the performance will begin at 7:00pm. Our café will be open for alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, along with a selection of light snacks.

Appropriate for all ages. Booking required.

Adult £15.00
