Welcome to VANITY FAIR - a giddy carousel of social climbers, buffoons and preening dandies by William Makepeace Thackeray!
Following the huge success of last summer’s production of Much Ado About Nothing, we are delighted to welcome back Moving Parts Theatre Company to perform their latest show in the stunning setting of the Creake Abbey ruins.
In a world of gossip and speculation, all is to play for and the stakes are perilously high - for romantic Amelia Sedley, consumed with her obsessive love, and Becky Sharp, an irrepressible schemer who will stop at nothing to get what she wants.
With a dazzling score of original music, this brand new adaptation of Thackeray’s tale of greed, ambition, love and betrayal transports audiences from Regency salons and ballrooms to the battlefield of Waterloo!
Enjoy a picnic and a glorious evening of high comedy, drama, inventive story-telling and toe-tapping tunes! Tickets on sale now:

Arrive anytime from 3pm. Picnics can be pre-ordered from The Barn Cafe - a link to the menu will be published here in May. The performance will begin at 6pm. There will be one interval at 7pm and the performance is expected to conclude at 8pm.
The abbey ruins are open to the elements. Please dress accordingly and bring a chair and blanket as needed. If the weather is against us, the performance can go ahead in a barn near the Courtyard Shops.
