Rainy Day Picks This Weekend
11–12 July Near Wittensford
Not every listing gets a golden ticket
We check the usual frankly silly number of local websites, then look for events that feel rainy-day friendly: cinemas, theatres, talks, workshops, galleries, concerts, cosy venues, and anything less likely to involve standing in a muddy field making brave weather noises.
Happening Saturday 11 July to Sunday 12 July.
Picked for Wittensford, not somewhere halfway across the county.
Only Local Gems and Curated venues make the cut, because standards are still a thing.
Listings with proper descriptions get bumped up the list. Three words and a shrug will not do.

5Jekyll & Hyde
Step into the shadows of Victorian London, where science meets obsession and love battles darkness. With a soaring pop-rock score by Frank Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse, this gripping musical reimagines Robert Louis Stevenson’s iconic tale of duality and desire. Follow Dr. Henry Jekyll, a brilliant scientist whose quest to cure humanity unleashes a terrifying alter ego - the savage Mr. Hyde. Torn between two women and haunted by his own creation, Jekyll’s descent into madness is as thrilling as it is tragic. A gothic masterpiece packed with passion, suspense, and unforgettable music, Jekyll & Hyde promises a night of drama, danger, and dazzling performances. Conceived for the stage by Steve Cudden & Frank Wildhorn. This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International. All authorised performance materials are also supplied by MTI www.MTIShows.co.uk
