Hands up if you love Theatre in the Forest 🙌🏼

I dunno about you, but there are 2 things that I simply must do every year; the first is the always brilliant Christmas Show at , and the second is the also always brilliant Theatre in the Forest.

I’m hugely looking forward to this one - Twelfth Night - which runs from 22nd July to 22 August at Sutton Hoo, and whilst I’ve not picked a date or got my tickets yet, you can bet your bottom dollar that I shall be there.

How’s about you?
