Strephon, an Arcadian shepherd, is in love with Phyllis, a ward of Chancery. But there is just one problem, or, rather, two. Firstly, Phyllis' guardian, Britain's Lord Chancellor, opposes the match. Secondly, and more importantly, Strephon is a fairy - but only down to the waist!

Location: Trinity Church, Conduit Road, Abingdon
Dates: 10th - 12th April
