The award-winning outdoor theatre company ‘Illyria’ is set to visit us at the Lincolnshire Showground with an exciting productions of Pride and Prejudice and The Wind in the Willows this summer.


This will be the first time Illyria has entertained lincolnshire audiences. 

 

“At its best, theatre is shared storytelling. And to experience this in the open air is uniquely special.” says Artistic Director Oliver Gray.

 

“Outdoors, with good company, good food and a glass of something bubbly is a much less formal way to enjoy theatre,” Oliver continues. “And there’s something truly unifying about actors performing, and audiences listening, all under the same sky.”

 

The shows will takes place at Lincolnshire Showground, whatever the weather!

 

Sophia Phillips, Events Manager at Lincolnshire Showground says, “With an esteemed reputation spanning more than thirty years, Illyria’s productions are simply unmissable. There’s no better way to celebrate British summertime.”
