Hide AdTheir troupe of actors hit the road with a host of musical instruments, props and costumes, bringing stories to life in innovative and unexpected ways, at some of the UK’s most spectacular historic and natural landmarks.
A spokesman said: “The Three Inch Fools are back and rushed off their feet performing one of Shakespeare’s most chaotic comedies for three performances only. Their last visit was with the hugely acclaimed performance of The Miraculous Misadventures of Robin Hood which stormed the Devonshire Park. Now they’re back with a brand-new take on the Shakespeare classic.
“With musical instruments in hand this hapless troupe of actors head to Eastbourne with a production of endless costume changes and confusion. The Fools take on Shakespeare’s story of rustic revelry. Rosalind and Celia are on the run, Orlando is practising his passionate yet pathetic attempts at poetry, and a cohort of boisterous lords are rubbing shoulders with a company of country bumpkins.

“The Three Inch Fools stage inventive, musically driven theatre and over the last eight years they have performed at over 170 different venues, to almost 100,000 audience members. They have built a reputation for staging innovative and vibrant productions – a fast-paced style, using all sorts of different musical instruments and many a quick costume change along the way!
“Don’t miss The Three Inch Fools production of As You Like It at the Devonshire Park Theatre, Eastbourne, nightly at 7.45pm with Wednesday 2.30pm matinee. Tickets £19 with concessions available.
