What's On at Levens Hall
Outdoor event
Fri 27 Jun 2025 - Fri 27 Jun 2025
The Most Perilous Comedie of Elizabeth I

The 'Three inch fools' will be performing in the garden of Levens Hall on 27th June 2025. The play will be a new comedy - The Most Perilous Comedie of Elizabeth I

Cost: Early Bird tickets from £18

The Three Inch Fools present a largely historical, always hysterical, brand new Tudor comedie

Elizabethan theatre is flourishing. But will a brand-new Tudor musical romp, in which Good Queen Bess takes to the stage herself, be the making of this heroine or spell the beginning of her downfall?

The stage is set for regicidal rivalries, devious dramatics, and plotting playwrights. Beset by misunderstandings and a script that…lets just say…needs some work, this production promises to be largely historical, always hysterical.

As the old saying goes…thy show must go-eth on!
