The sun shone, the union jack flags flew and everyone had a great time at last weekend's concerts at Castle Howard.  Our gazebos looked resplendent with Castle Howard as a backdrop, overlooking the lake and Howardian Hills.  Our guests dined alfresco in the private garden area, sipping their wine and enjoying the spitfire display before the main Proms Concert commenced.  One guest commented 'This really is a magical atmosphere, this is now the only way we will experience one of the summer concerts, thank you for looking after us'.  We have uploaded some photos on the following link for you to have a look at. http://picasaweb.google.com/EmmaRamply/CastleHowardQueenProms?feat=directlink

Shakespeare - The Tempest, Tuesday 16th June - Sunday 5th July 2009

If you are looking for an unique way to entertain clients, reward staff, or simply enjoy a wonderful evening with family and friends, why not challenge your ideas of conventional theatre and transform your views of Shakespeare by attending an exciting production in and around the beautiful grounds and lake of Ripley Castle.  Have a look at the Event sheet in Calendar of Events for the hospitality package options.

The play - The Tempest is Shakespeare's last play.  It explores the story of Prospero, an abandoned and betrayed sorcerer, as he seeks revenge with the help of his supernatural servant Ariel, and finds love for his beautiful daughter Miranda.  A mysterious, but catastrophic storm at the beginning of the play leaves Antonio and his comrades stranded on the island, but they soon find out that they are not alone ... or safe.
