Outdoor Theatre – Beauty and the Beast

Join Chapterhouse Theatre Company at Holkham this summer, for a brand-new telling of this classic fairy tale. When an arrogant prince is cursed to live as a hideous beast, his only hope is a kindly young woman in search of a rose.

Presented with lively original music, animal puppets, and sparkling humour, Chapterhouse Theatre Company’s rollicking new adaptation of Beauty and the Beast is perfect for all the family!

Please arrive via the north gates using the postcode NR23 1RH and proceed to the car park. Our parking team will be on hand to direct you. The performance begins at 5:30pm and lasts for approximately 1 hour 45 minutes. The courtyard will be open from 4:45pm.

You are welcome to bring low backed seating or rugs. Please come prepared for all weather conditions, however umbrellas are not permitted unless seated on the back row.

Sorry, no dogs are permitted, except assistance dogs and we ask that dogs are not left in vehicles during the performance.
