NOW BOOKING: SUMMER 2024

This summer, we present Shakespeare's farcical The Comedy of Errors, and a brand new comedy of our own about one of England's most epic monarchs, Henry VIII. One is an essential guide on how to keep your head in the Tudor Court, and the other a ticking clock of chaos and mistaken identity - arguably our most must-see season to date.

The clock is ticking as The Fools try to untangle one almighty mess in this farcical tale of long-lost twins and endless mishaps.

The Secret Diary of Henry VIII

PERFORMING ACROSS THE UK, MAY - SEPTEMBER

An essential guide on how to keep your head in the Tudor Court. Don’t miss this mad-capped take on the epic life of King Henry VIII.

Theatre in the great outdoors

The Three Inch Fools stage inventive, musically-driven theatre in the great outdoors. Our 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.

Over the last eight years we have performed at over 170 different venues, to almost 100,000 audience members. We have built a reputation for staging innovative and vibrant productions - a fast-paced, musically-driven style, using all sorts of different instruments, plenty of multi-roling and many a quick costume change along the way!

Each Summer we hit the road with our contemporary take on the traditional touring troupe, performing - come rain come shine - in the great British outdoors. We perform in almost any kind of setting and in all sorts of places. To date, we have performed at some of the UK's most stunning castles, stately homes and historic barns, National Trust and English Heritage properties, village greens, churches, cathedrals, market places, an old fire station, a medieval crypt, a garlic farm, a royal residence and even a seaside pier - all the world's a stage!
