Chapterhouse Theatre Company is now in its 18th year of touring open-air theatre to stunning country houses, castles and heritage sites across the UK and Ireland. From the first year of performances at some 30 venues with Romeo and Juliet in 2000, Chapterhouse now visits over 170 venues every year, and has become a greatly anticipated addition to thousands of theatre-goers’ calendars.
Chapterhouse’s 2017 summer season is set to be one of the most wonderful yet, with a special revival of Pride and Prejudice to mark the 200th Anniversary of Jane Austen’s death. The show, that was first adapted by Laura Turner in 2010, has been performed to many sell-out audiences including over 3,000 people at Chatsworth House. Now, audiences are being given another chance to see this beautiful romantic comedy alongside fellow returning favourites, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Jane Eyre and The Wind in the Willows.
Chapterhouse are also once again proud to be helping raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity. 2017’s all-new production of Peter Pan is a fresh reworking of last year’s performance of the same name, but with all the family fun left in.
Lastly, following in the footsteps of the outstanding success of A Christmas Carol, a brand-new adaptation of Great Expectations is the company’s next Dickensian adventure, and the first of which to be taken into the open-air.
Full details of all the performances and locations can be found here.
