Agatha Christie’s The Spider’s Web May 25th – 30^th

Presented by Bill Kenwright by special arrangement with Agatha Christie Ltd. Following the Agatha Christie Theatre  Company's hugely successful productions of 'The Hollow', 'The Unexpected Guest', and more recently 'And Then There Were None'; the fourth instalment in the highly acclaimed series promises to be the most intriguing and entertaining yet.

When Clarissa discovers a dead body in her drawing-room, she tries to dispose of it before her Foreign Office diplomat husband returns home with a government VIP in tow. As a web of deceit starts to unravel, Clarissa pulls her friends into a desperate race to unveil the murderer and solve the mystery before the police discover the felony and arrest her as their prime suspect! An ideal way to introduce new literature to any age group.

Horrible Histories 15th – 19th Sept

The whole of the First & Second World Wars crammed onto a theatre stage complete with shell firing tanks, exploding torpedoed ships and the blitzing of an entire city by massed bombers….. sound impossible?

This just launched national tour of Frightful First World War and Woeful Second World War uses amazing 3D special Bogglevision effects to bring a huge range of incredible scenes alive for families and the under 16s & makes these wonders seem to hover just above the audience’s heads. Horrible Histories is designed to educate and entertain and teachers packs and class room activities will be issued upon request.
