Open-Air Theatre: Romeo & Juliet
 Sat 31 August
Newstead Abbey
Illyria Theatre Company presents a passionate, poetic and utterly gripping production of this Shakespeare favourite, for our final open-air theatre performance of the summer.
Shakespeare states in the opening lines of this play that we are going to see an explosive swash-buckling romance, but the surprise he has in store for us is that it’s extremely funny too! The Montagues and the Capulets are at war with one another - but when Montague’s son gatecrashes Capulet’s party in disguise and falls in love with his daughter, a chain-reaction of events is set in motion which has a devastating conclusion.
The History Boys
 Tue 10 - Sat 14 September
Theatre Royal
20 years ago, Alan Bennett’s The History Boys premiered at the National Theatre in London and immediately became a modern classic.
Eight unruly teenagers burst into adulthood with the best grades their school has ever seen, but their sights are set on something higher: to study at the most famous academic institutions in the world - Oxford and Cambridge. The History Boys follows this bright bunch of boys in pursuit of sex, sport and a place at university, lifting the lid on staffroom rivalries and the anarchy of adolescence.
