About this event
Prevented from hatching her eggs at the farm, foolish Jemima goes in search of a nesting place in the forest and soon she meets a charming ‘gentleman’ who offers her the perfect nesting place in his wood-shed.
But why is his wood-shed full of feathers and why is he asking her to collect the herbs for roast duck?
Back at the farm, the Collie-dog, Kep, puts two and two together, but will he be in time to rescue Jemima from her fate?
The performance will take place in the Anglo-Saxon Village. Please note Theatre in the Parks tickets do not include a visit to the Anglo-Saxon Museum.
Please bring chairs and blankets with you, pack a picnic and dress for the weather, it is the British summer after all!

For wildlife enthusiasts there are two bird hides and a bird feeding area as well as a lake and the River Lark with all the life that this attracts.
Perfect for picnics on sunny days or energetic winter walks and with an adventure playground for children, this is an ideal family destination.
Families can also enjoy the Beowulf and Grendell Adventure Trail.
Open: Daily 9am to 5pm in winter (during December and January, the park may close at dusk) Daily 9am to 8pm in summer

Dogs
Please note that between 1 March and 31 July, all dogs must be kept on a lead throughout the country park to protect ground nesting birds. Please be aware that dogs are not allowed in the Anglo-Saxon Village, Museum or Visitor Centre, with the exception of assistance dogs, due to the presence of livestock and the archaeological nature of the site.
