Saturday 1 September 2018
Gates open at 6.30pm for a 7.30pm start. Cost £15.00 per person.
1737 was a bad year for the Royal Family. This production tells the story of the rivalry between King George II and his son Frederick, Prince of Wales, as seen through the eyes of the King and Queen’s Vice-Chamberlain, Lord Hervey of Ickworth. His uninhibited memoirs, both witty and shocking, provide a wickedly entertaining picture of Georgian society at the very top. “A witty and stylish production…Andrew Waxkirsh brings Lord Hervey to life in a truly accomplished piece of theatre” (Susan Mayor, National Trust)
Warning: not suitable for children or those of a nervous disposition!
The play will take place on the first floor of the mansion. As this production will be performed in the round the audience will be limited to 80. Tickets are sure to sell out fast.
