ON STAGE AT GUILDBURYS PICNIC THEATRE 2024
FROM JULY 17 - 20.
'NOBODY STOPS AT JAMAICA INN'
Pack the rug, lay out the picnic basket and join Guildburys Theatre Company at Merrist Wood as they take you to Jamaica Inn on the rainswept Cornish coast. The coachman warned Mary Yellan away from the forbidding place, but she pressed on, intent on honouring her dying mother’s wish that she go to live with her Aunt Patience and her hulking and powerful Uncle Joss Merlyn at Jamaica Inn. She could sense the inn’s dark power. But never did Mary dream that she would become hopelessly ensnared in the villainous schemes being hatched within its crumbling walls – or that a handsome, mysterious stranger would so incite her passions, tempting her to love a man she dares not trust.
Daphne Du Maurier's classic tale is brought to life in this exciting and innovative adaptation by award winning writer Lisa Evans.
Merrist Wood is 3 miles from Guildford and is the perfect setting in which to enjoy a picnic with friends whilst being royally entertained!
Evening performances at 7.45pm, Saturday matinee at 2pm.
Grounds open for picnics 90 minutes before curtain-up.
