Review of Charlies Chocolate Extravaganza!
A lovely little play but too much time wasted practising dance moves the children already knew and queuing for treats and photos. More activities could have been offered to ensure value for money.

Review of Charlies Chocolate Extravaganza!
Wasnt quite what as expected but was enjoyable. at the beginning there was a girl who had some treasure hunt forms and pens but she didnt make an effort to ensure all the children got one so we werent able to. It would have been nice if they had microphones to hear better and maybe something a little more interactive although I appreciate with the age range and numbers this may have been challenging. The bean game is good and maybe an actual dance like 5,6,7,8 or hokie cokie. The children could have been solit between the characters for the egg hunt in teams maybe. I think some people just randomly joined the event as well without having paid which was annoying. The actors were funny and the lady playing veruca was really entertaining. The chance for photos was lovely.

Review of The Sorcerers Apprentice 12:30pm - 1:30pm Session
A brilliant performance by the storytellers. So interactive with the children and adults.
Sticking to a storyline with children involved is difficult but the 2 actors were brilliant with the way the children wanted to be so involved and the conversations being had.
It was very funny at times and challenging for the actors. They need highly commending for their performance.
Looking forward to the next time.

Review of Tales of OZ
Great children’s play. Lion was the best character, played by very funny actor. Slight shame because some of the actors talked over each other at times and seemed unsure of lines/when to come in with lines, but I’m unsure if any of the actors had had to be replaced at short notice due to Covid-related issues? Still a great experience for our little one.

Review of Tales of OZ 2:30pm Session
A lovely outdoor event with talented , professional performers. Granny (59) and 8 year old fully participated and enjoyed every minute. Liked the fact the the actors performed around the audience and possibly worked better than the audience following around the grounds.

Review of Father Christmas at Holker Hall
I wanted to do something different this year as my children are getting older (8 and 9). Holker Hall was the perfect choice.
Everyone created a truly magical Christmas experience.
My children appreciated having to walk and sing to each different part of the story which kept their attention.
The boys both loved it and I loved having a peek at the glorious rooms in Holker Hall and the stunning decorations. Will definitely be returning without the children to soak up the history of the hall at a later date.
The most special part of the visit was seeing Father Christmas himself. He had time for all the children, he made sure families got the photos they wanted, and he was just perfect.
The only negative I would say were the presents. Perhaps a wooden toy, crafted locally, would have been a bit better than a chocolate selection box. I'd prefer to pay a bit more to receive a toy or figure that was perhaps made by the elves.
For a rare change we ALL had a lovely time. I have been recommending Holker at Christmas to all my friends.
Review of Father Christmas at Holker Hall
Great experience. Kids loved it and amazing venue. The volunteers who were upstairs with Santa were fabulous. All staff were great and considering we were the 2nd last group at the end of a busy weekend the experience was fantastic. Would highly recommend!
