ILLYRIA returns to the scenic lakeside meadow of Brantwood on Tuesday, August 22 (7pm) performing one of the most famous cautionary tales ever told - Hans Christian Andersen’s The Emperor’s New Clothes. Now in its 26th season, the highly acclaimed touring theatre company first performed the show in 2000 when it was Critic's Choice at the Edinburgh Fringe and attracted multiple five-star reviews on a sell out UK tour. Coniston Launch is providing a ferry service to Brantwood for both shows leaving Coniston boat landings at 6.15pm.
