The Elizabethan Evening presents The Three Musketeers

The Elizabethan Evening is a much-loved annual outdoor theatre event in the village of Corsley supporting local charities.

The event has raised almost £90,000 to date and this year we’re supporting Frome College Young Carers and the Youth Adventure Trust.

Help us raise vital funds for these important organisations by joining us to enjoy The Three Musketeers, performed by outdoor theatre specialists Illyria.

All for One – and One for All! Set in 17th century France at war, this production is a whirlwind of excitement, broad comedy and ingenious storytelling. Romance. Intrigue. Betrayal. Revenge. Dumas’s classic has the lot!

Young D’Artagnan is desperate to join Athos, Porthos and Aramis as an elite Musketeer of the King’s Guard. To prove himself he plunges headlong into a thrilling adventure to retrieve the Queen’s jewels, restore Her Majesty’s honour, survive the machinations of Cardinal Richelieu and cross swords with the deadliest of femmes fatales Milady de Winter.

Staged in the gardens of the historic Elizabethan Manor Farm, it’s a truly special setting for this popular annual occasion.

Gates open at 4pm, with the performance starting at 5pm. Performance time is 2 hours plus a 20-minute interval.

Bring your own seating, grab some friends and we’ll do the rest. We offer a licensed bar, tea, coffee, brownies and ice cream for sale (cash or card).
