Theatre Royal Winchester Announces its Half-Term Programme
This October half-term Theatre Royal Winchester has a busy programme of family theatre from some of the country's most exciting children's theatre companies.
Half-term at the venue begins with How to Hide a Lion on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 October. A co-production between Pigtails, Polka Theatre and Oxford Playhouse, this charming show brings Helen Stephen's much-loved children's book to life with humour, dazzling puppetry and song. Great fun for everyone aged 3+.
On Thursday 25 October Milkshake! Live presents The Magic Story Book. Families are invited to join Bob the Builder, Fireman Sam and a whole bunch of other brilliant characters in this all-singing all-dancing musical masterpiece.
Popular magicians Morgan & West present two family-friendly shows at Theatre Royal Winchester this half-term. More Magic for Kids! is a marvellous magic show that the young, old and everyone in-between will marvel at and Time-Travelling Magicians is an interactive evening of magic, mystery and the unexplainable. Both shows are on Saturday 27 October.
The week closes with People's Theatre Company's There was an old Lady who Swallowed a Fly on Sunday 28 October. Celebrating one of the world's best-loved nursery rhymes, this delightful family show is suitable for children aged 2+. Fun for the whole family, the production features sing-a-long songs and charm aplenty.
During half-term Theatre Royal Winchester is delighted to present Sing it! in a Day as part of the venue's engagement and learning programme. Young people aged 8-18 years old are invited to take part in a day of music-based workshops teaching vocal skills and techniques led by industry experts, culminating in an early evening performance for friends and family. Bursary places are available.
