The Most Perilous Comedie of Elizabeth I - at Kirkstall Abbey

Elizabethan theatre is flourishing. But will a brand-new Tudor musical romp, in which Good Queen Bess takes to the stage herself, be the making of this heroine or spell the beginning of her downfall?

The stage is set for regicidal rivalries, devious dramatics, and plotting playwrights. Beset by misunderstandings and a script that…let’s just say…needs some work, this production promises to be largely historical, always hysterical.

As the old saying goes…thy show must go-eth on!

But who should it be?

Of course, there’s only one man for the job – Clinton Baptiste.

Receiving the audiences’ queries and earthbound dilemmas, Clinton will then reach out to spirits for answers.

Fear not. He will probe sensitively.
