There's only one week to go until Saint Catherine's Starlight at Scampston event! Come along to their free fun day in the parkland, jam-packed with entertaining activities for all ages, and sign up to an enchanted walk! It's set to be a beautiful day and all for a fantastic cause. 🌷🧚‍♀️🧝‍♂️

For the fourth year running, The Three Inch Fools will be returning to Scampston, this time with their fresh and vibrant take on Shakespearean comedy 'Much Ado About Nothing'. Join us in the Hall Gardens for what is set to be another rip-roaring musical adventure!
Five actors, with all manner of musical instruments, present an inventive take on Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing - a rip-roaring comedy of quarrels, deceptions and a frustratingly stupid man called Dogberry.
T...he Three Inch Fools are a five-strong troupe of actors, performing a highly imaginative and vibrantly musical take on Shakespeare's plays across the UK.
The Fools do Shakespeare differently - a fast-paced, musically-driven style, using all sorts of different instruments, plenty of multi-roling and many a quick costume change along the way.
SYNOPSIS
Returning from the battlefield as brave soldiers, Claudio and Benedick find themselves battling feelings of the heart as they are reunited with Hero and Beatrice. A series of misunderstandings, mistaken identity, and a scheming brother threatens to sabotage Claudio’s attempts to woo Hero. While Benedick and Beatrice find themselves stubbornly fighting their feelings for one another.
Open for picnics at 6pm. Performance begins at 7pm. £16 adults | £8 under-18s | £40 Family ticket (2adults+2children) | Free for under-10s
