An Evening of Vanbrugh

We are delighted to welcome England’s oldest student theatre company, the Cambridge University Amateur Dramatic Club, to celebrate the 300 year anniversary of playwright and architect Sir John Vanbrugh with a medley of his greatest scenes.

This evening of laughter and love will be performed at Grimsthorpe Castle, designed by Vanbrugh himself as his last masterpiece. Student actors, directors and designers from Cambridge will travel to the castle to perform highlights from across Vanbrugh’s work, alongside newly-written responses commissioned especially for this performance.

With Vanbrugh’s witty Restoration comedies, the gorgeous setting of his Great Hall, and the talent of CUADC artists, this is one evening that you cannot miss. Refreshments will be on offer throughout the evening, and visitors will also have the chance to take a stroll around the formal gardens before and after the production.
