Summer of Play at Lytes Cary Manor

Make Lytes Cary Manor your destination for a playful summer - there's so much to do one day won't be enough. Pick up a family fun backpack stuffed full of activities, ride a hobby horse or challenge your friends to a game of croquet. There are puzzles to solve, colouring to be done and a giant spider to discover in the woodland. Tick off at least 10 of the 50 things to do before you are 11 3/4, have a game of croquet, and don't forget an ice cream.

The (Almost) Complete History of Britain - The Pantaloons

Mud, blood and stiff upper-lips! Join the critically-acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company on a breathless race through the centuries in this delightfully inventive show that tells the entire story of Britain in under 2 hours. Have you ever wanted to see the life of Henry VIII told as a romantic comedy or the tale of the Spanish Armada reimagined as a light operetta? Probably not. But that won’t stop The Pantaloons retelling great moments from the country’s past in a variety of surprising genres! Featuring live music, audience interaction and wild historical inaccuracy. “Laugh-out-loud funny… endless verve and utterly infectious joy.” - Northwich Guardian Doors open: 6:30pm Performance starts: 7pm Advance Tickets (online and in the Yard Gift Shop): Adult £18 Child £12 PLUS Members £16 On The Gate: Adult £21 Child £14 PLUS Members £18 A child's ticket covers the ages of 5 to 15.
