Play in the park continue at Woburn Abbey

WOBURN Abbey continues to host plays in the park this weekend with the Chapterhouse Theatre Company’s production of Emma on Saturday night followed, a day later, by the idyllic retelling of the family story of Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny.

Jane Austin’s Emma is a wonderful tale of matchmaking, marriage and merriment. Emma is a young woman determined to pair her friends off with their perfect matches. But could it be that amidst her plotting, her own true love has been there all along?

Quantum Theatre’s The Tales of Beatrix Potter is a perfect introduction for children to the theatre who will be transfixed by the magicalal production.
