Booking information

Event details

Bury Theatre Workshop, a Community Theatre Company, are performing “The Tempest” by William Shakespeare – Picnic in the Park


Another shipwreck lands young Prince Ferdinand, on a magical island inhabited only by the beautiful Miranda and her father Prospero. Prospero has spent his time practicing magic and conjured up an airy, and musical, spirit, Ariel, and a particularly loathsome monster called Caliban along with various and numerous other supernatural characters. We hope you will enjoy the spectacular imagery, sounds, dance, and of course the poetry of The Tempest while sitting in Bury St Edmunds’ lovely Abbey Gardens with your picnic in the warm July sunshine!
