Swansea Bay Summer Festival Outdoor Theatre Season is back

May 19, 2010 - PRLog -- The first production by the Quantum Theatre Company is a brand new adaptation of Charles Dickens’ most popular novel, Great Expectations on 16 & 17 June at 7.30pm.

Expect high comedy and dark drama as we follow Pip on his journey to become a gentleman and discover the true nature of his great expectations.

Settle down and watch the drama unfold through a terrifying encounter with an escaped convict in a graveyard on the wild Kent marshes; a summons to meet the bitter, decaying Miss Havisham and her beautiful, cold-hearted ward Estella; and the sudden generosity of a mysterious benefactor. All set against the dramatic backdrop of Oystermouth Castle.

To make your evening extra special, you can now pre order a freshly made picnic, pick it up on arrival and settle back to enjoy the performance.  Prices start from £25 for 2 people, order by Friday June 11 on 01792 635428.  Visit the website for full details.

Tickets prices have been held for a second year plus save £2 when you buy a ticket for Great Expectations in June and The Tempest in August (only applicable when purchased together).
