Celebrate the animal kingdom with us this summer.
The award-winning outdoor theatre company 'Illyria' is set to visit us with an exciting production of The Adventures of Doctor Dolittle.
One day with the help of his wise old parrot Polynesia, Doctor Dolittle makes an extraordinary discovery: that he can talk to animals! As news of his unique talent as an animal doctor spreads, animals from across the world send messages asking for his help. So he buys a leaky old ship and embarks on a thrilling quest… Hugh Lofting's timeless classic celebrates the power of empathy and inspires audiences young and old to see the world through the eyes of animals. This funny, exciting family musical is performed with flair and wit by Illyria in the great outdoors.
The show takes place, whatever the weather, on Tuesday 28th May.
For over thirty years, Illyria have had a simple mission: to create outstandingly enjoyable outdoor theatre and make it available for everyone. They have performed for more than a million people and, this year, will perform The Adventures of Doctor Dolittle, The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Gondoliers, and Romeo & Juliet at open-air venues across the country, including here at Cockington Court.
Bring your own seating/rug and a picnic, sit back and enjoy the performance.
