Halloween is coming and, with it, children's tales for the spooky season. It's time for spooks and ghouls and freaks and fools, as award-winning storyteller Jason Buck brings heroes and monsters to life in Leamington's Foundry Wood (details below).
Ages: Children and adults (7+) - infant siblings free
"Thoroughly enjoyed Jason's stories today. My 9 year old loved them too. I was worried he might get bored (as young boys do) and despite his constant wriggling he remained enthralled. He told me he closed his eyes at one point, listened to the story with great sound effects". Samantha, Chester
"Jason Buck is a man made of myth, magic and mead. His stories are filled with adventure, his beard is full of unexpected twists and his tankard filled with a poet's brew. Sit around the fire and listen to his tales - you won't be disappointed." Abbie, Strange Times Storytelling Club
IMPORTANT...
Foundry Wood is an open air woodland site and there are some things you need to consider when you visit:
- Entrance / exit time: As the site will be closed to the public during the show, the gates will be locked 5 minutes before the start, and late entries cannot be admitted, and refunds cannot be given. People will be able to leave at any time, if required, as volunteers will be on hand.
- Parking and accessibility: Please see the wood's website here www.foundrywood.co.uk/location
- Seating: Some log stump seats and rustic benches are provided, but you may wish to bring camping chairs for extra comfort.
- Clothing: If traditional British weather interferes with rain, the performance will take place in a covered area, but please dress for the weather and for being in a woodland. If the event can't go ahead because of the weather, your ticket will be refunded in full
- Refreshments: There are no facilities for refreshments at the woodland, other than a drinking water tap, near the entrance. Feel free to bring your own to enjoy before or during the show (just be mindful of noisy packaging and cans).
- Toilet facilities: There is one eco toilet on-site. Paper and hand sanitiser is provided, but you may wish to bring your own as well.
Smoking or vaping is not permitted in or near the performance area.
