Outdoor Theatre – The Secret Diary of Henry VIII

Join us for an evening of outdoor theatre set in the historical ruins of Corfe Castle this summer!

The Three Inch Fools present an essential guide on how to keep your head in the Tudor Court. Unexpectedly thrust into the limelight, young Henry navigates the ups and downs of courtly life, and all whilst fighting the French (again) and re-writing religion. The Fools hit the road with this brand new comedy – a mad-capped take on Britain’s most epic monarch, and those infamous wives.
