Step into the world of Elizabethan theatre and discover the untold story of Will Kemp, the original Falstaff, Shakespeare’s clown, and the man who danced his way into legend! Masterfully brought to life by Theatre 17, Death of a Clown is a one-man theatrical tour de force, a captivating blend of humour, history and live music, taking you on a journey from the heights of success of the Globe Theatre to the lowest of low taverns in Thetford. Whether you’re a Shakespeare enthusiast or just love a great story well told, this is a play that will entertain, enlighten, and surprise you.
Tickets are £10 each and are now available to purchase from the Village Shop + Post Office.
