PREVIEW
Tamsyn Payne, director

It is the wedding night in the palace of King Shahrayar. By morning the new Queen Sharazad is to be put to death, like a thousand young brides before her. She has one gift that could save her - the gift of story-telling.

Can the young Queen transport the vengeful King to the mystical land Ali Baba, Es-Sindibad the sailor and Princess Parizade? Will her silver-tongued story-telling save her life?

An outdoor experience

Because this is an outdoor show and is dependent on the weather, tickets are only available on-the-door. Cash or cheques only, please.

Experience the unique atmosphere of a play performed in the open air in the historic setting of the Grade I listed Abington Park Museum, once the home of Shakespeare’s granddaughter.

As you are open to the elements you should wrap up warm and bring some waterproof clothes with you. If the weather worsens and the production has to be abandoned before the interval, you will be offered a ticket for another performance (if available) or a refund.  If the performance is abandoned after the interval, no refund will be made.
