TUESDAY, July 8 will be a special occasion in the grounds of Chavenage House, near Tetbury.

Not only will it be curtain up on a new production of Shakespeare's As You Like It, but it will also mark the twentieth summer performance in this beautiful setting.

"While we are an amateur group, we do set out to create the best quality performance we possibly can. It's such a magnificent venue and it's what our audiences deserve. Once you have Chavenage in your blood, I'm not sure you ever shake it off," said Anne Parry, chairman of Chavenage Productions.

Performances run from Tuesday to Saturday, July 8-12, with some seats still available for Tuesday.
