Illyria, in partnership with Swansea Council, have announced this year’s programme, promising unforgettable performances in the stunning historic setting of Oystermouth Castle.
On Wednesday, 13 August at 7pm, audiences will be transported into the world of Pride and Prejudice. Celebrating 250 years since Jane Austen’s birth, the timeless tale is a fitting tribute.
The following afternoon, on Thursday, 14 August at 2pm, families can enjoy The Wind in the Willows. Adapted from Kenneth Grahame’s cherished novel, this lively production promises an engaging experience for audiences of all ages.
Councillor Elliott King, Cabinet Member for Culture, Human Rights & Equalities at Swansea Council, said: “Outdoor Theatre remains a highlight of the summer season at Oystermouth Castle.
“We are delighted to welcome these outstanding productions to Swansea, offering residents and visitors the chance to enjoy exceptional live performances in one of the city’s most iconic locations.”
Oystermouth Castle is open seven days a week from 11am to 5pm (last entry at 4:30pm). Theatre attendees are encouraged to bring a picnic or explore the vibrant selection of shops, restaurants, bars, cafés, and renowned ice cream parlours in Mumbles.
