It’s Monday 3rd OCTOBER 1836 the Grand Opening of Herne Bay’s new Clocktower. Mister Neale and Mister Penwick have been planning the celebrations for months, with bands, acrobats and jugglers, a parade and fireworks and flames to illuminate the entire pier. But, when a freak accident threatens to undo the festivities, can anyone save the day????
Wizard Stories brand of interactive storytelling is by its’ very nature a true interpretation of Sun Sea and Celebration. This years’ theme focusses on the 1836 celebrations on the seafront of the opening of the Clocktower. Our eight bespoke stories each has a coastal theme and through interaction and encouragement with professional storytellers the audience members are welcomed into a creative space to listen, imagine and create.
Limited to 30 places per performance so please book with Wizard Stories on 07710 474960
