Join Quantum Theatre this summer in the ruins of Corfe Castle as they presents a delightful new adaptation of Beatrix Potter’s much-loved tale —The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck.

New for 2024, Quantum presents a delightful new adaptation of Beatrix Potter’s much-loved tale — The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck.

Prevented from hatching her eggs at the farm, foolish Jemima goes in search of a nesting place in the forest and soon she meets a charming ‘gentleman’ who offers her the perfect nesting place in his wood-shed.

But why is his wood-shed full of feathers and why is he asking her to collect the herbs for roast duck? 

Back at the farm, the Collie-dog, Kep, puts two and two together, but will he be in time to rescue Jemima from her fate?  

Bring your own blankets, cushions, and camping-chairs, come prepared for the weather - the performance will continue come rain come shine!

Performance will begin at 7pm.
Gates open at 6pm.
