The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe

While exploring an old country house, young Lucy stumbles upon an unusual wardrobe. At first glance, it appears to hold nothing more than winter coats, but beyond the fur material lies the magical realm of Narnia, blanketed in snow and held captive by the White Witch’s spell of endless winter. When Lucy returns, she tells her siblings of the wonder and danger she encountered. Skeptical but curious, they venture through the wardrobe themselves and are drawn into a conflict far greater than they imagined. Yet hope is not lost, for whispers of Aslan’s return echo through the forest. Step into C.S. Lewis’s classic tale adapted to stage by Glyn Robbins, brought to life with wonder and warmth, where courage and friendship melt even the deepest winter. Concessions: Over 60s and Under 16s Relaxed Performance: Sunday 21st June, 11am (to book please contact Box Office: 01524 64695)

Theatre Tours

243 years of history in the Gem of the Northwest for the taking! You are invited to take a guided tour of the third oldest continually operating theatre in England. Originally built in 1782 during the reign of George III and rebuilt in 1908 to its current Edwardian style, you will hear about its long and lively history and how it has developed into what you see today. A backstage and front of house tour is yours for the taking during which you will see the ornate auditorium and the wonders of the hidden, functional world behind the curtain. Stand on the stage and see what it looks like to be a performer! Hear about the people who ran the Grand over the years, what they did to it and who has appeared here. If you are lucky, you may even see the ghost! Information: Saturday morning tours start at 10.30am from the foyer coffee bar, weekday daytime tours start at 2pm from the foyer coffee bar, and they last approximately one and a half hours. It is possible to book places on the day but tours will only take place if there are already some pre-booked places for that particular date. Due to the historic nature of our Grade 2 listed building certain parts of the theatre are only accessible via steps or stairs. Private group bookings are possible on other dates. Please contact the Box Office on 01524 64695 to discuss.
