Book now: The Lost Words: Told in Gold interactive theatre at Dunham Massey

Those looking for some half term inspiration wouldn’t go far wrong by visiting Dunham Massey this October. The National Trust property’s interactive theatre production The Lost Words: Told in Gold takes over their North Park space to install a maze of giant set pieces – including a huge birds nest that inquisitive minds can enter and explore – during Mon 21 – Fri 25 Oct. Taking inspiration from author Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris’s award-winning children’s book of poems and inspirations, this interactive event invites kids aged 4 and upwards to reconsider the various worlds of nature that are quickly disappearing from their day-to-day lives. Through music, dance and audience participation, The Lost Words: Told in Gold aims to ignite a love of the natural world within the young minds that pass through its specially built sets and interact with its on-site performers. The Lost Words has also been designed as a sensory experience suitable for visitors with visual impairment, SEN or autism. Tickets are currently on sale for £14 for adults and £10 for children, with family passes available from just £43. Entrance into Dunham Massey’s picturesque North Park is included with the overall price – making this the perfect half term treat! Looking for more half term inspiration?
