Holker Hall and Gardens will host Chapterhouse Theatre Company's new take on the fairy tale Beauty and the Beast.

Taking place on Sunday, July 21 at 4pm, the outdoor performance offers a fresh retelling of the classic story, featuring a curious Belle whose life is about to be steeped in enchantment as she uncovers the secrets of an enigmatic castle and its inhabitants.

The family-friendly offering features 'delightful' settings and a cast of puppets.
