Experience the magic of Shakespeare under the open sky and on the field of play as acclaimed outdoor theatre company “Illyria” brings As You Like It to the Cooper Associates County Ground on Sunday September 13th.

The performance, which is suitable for all ages, begins at 3.30pm, with gates opening from 2.30pm, giving visitors plenty of time to arrive, relax and soak up the atmosphere before the show starts.
Tickets are priced at £25 for adults and £15 for under-16s, with excellent value family tickets available for just £60 (2 adults and 2 children).
