Four Weekends of Mirth and Merriment at England Brothers Park in Pinellas Park

Weekends April 19th – May 11th 2025

Welcome to the Shire of Heyford!

As winter yields to spring and the days grow longer and hotter, the royal custom is to flee the heat of London and enjoy a relaxing progress through the English Countryside.

It is here that we find ourselves in the Shire of Heyford. The year is 1591, and Queen Elizabeth Regina Gloriana is arrived for a grand celebration to ease the burden of state that rests so heavily on her great shoulders.

‘Tis on this faire day that an unknown playwrite by the name of William Shakespeare plans to present to the Queen a new play about a pair of star crossed lovers from fair Verona.

Will his play earn Her Majesty’s favor and set this young upstart crow on the road to stardom, or will his hopes be dashed upon the rocks of his own hubris?

Of course, the play isn’t the only thing. Each villager, cook, entertainer, artisan, and courtier has a story to tell, wares to peddle, and feasts to cook. The only problem for you, dear traveller, is that one day is simply not enough time to experience all there is to offer!
