Our beautiful Grade II* listed home doesn’t have air conditioning, so here are a few quick tips for your visit:

👕 Wear light, breathable clothing
⏰ Arrive early so you don’t have to rush in the heat
🪭 Bring a handheld or pocket fan with you
💧 Stay hydrated before and during the show

You are very welcome to bring your own water bottle, and free jugs of water are available at all our bars.

If you need anything at all while you’re here, just ask our lovely front of house team!

🎭 We are incredibly proud of our BOH Creates Young Companies as they take to the stage at the Pavilion Arts Centre this week. Our Junior group will be bringing Roald Dahl's delightfully silly classic The Twits to life, followed by a gripping "whodunnit" mystery, Murder at the Music Hall, performed by our Inters group. 🕵️‍♂️

This special double bill is a wonderful opportunity for our young performers to showcase all the hard work they have poured into rehearsals over the recent months. We wish both fantastic casts a massive "break a leg" as they step into the spotlight! ✨
