Enjoy Shakespeare company outdoors

Stamford Shakespeare Company presents Wind in the Willows at the beautiful Tolethorpe Hall this summer.

This stage adaptation of Kenneth Grahame’s classic novel captures vividly the idyllic world of the river bank and the distant Wild Wood where wily weasels lie in wait.

Nautical Ratty, modest Mole and wise old Badger are determined to save the irrepressible Mr Toad from his relentless passion for fast motor cars.

Will the reckless Toad ever change his ways? Where will it all end?

A timeless, enchanting story set in Edwardian England.

The show runs tonight (Thursday), Friday and Saturday at 7.45pm. Tickets cost £13 (Thursday), £15 (Friday) and £18 (Saturday). Concessions (senior citizens, under 16s and students) £1.
