Review of Divorced, Beheaded and Died - An Audience with Henry VIII

Highly enjoyable evening, staff were so helpful and it was really well organised- all eventualities catered for esp the weather with an indoor and outdoor plan in place. Henry was great- captivating to listen to and he really bought History alive. the question and answers at the end was v entertaining and he really knew his stuff. Had a good night out and learned something new. All good.
Staff were so helpful with my dad too, who has mobility issues.
Highly recommend and would love to attend another similar event soon.

Review of Divorced, Beheaded and Died - An Audience with Henry VIII

The event was an absolute joy to witness and be a part of. The performance was informative, witty, accurate and well acted.
The prices of the drinks and pizza were a bit steep but that’s an issue for the venue - not for the play. And maybe take a cushion to sit on.
Otherwise a fantastic night, a great atmosphere and a thoroughly entertaining experience. Thank you x

Review of Divorced, Beheaded and Died - An Audience with Henry VIII

I loved it. The road a bit busy that you could hear as it was outside. Would have been a beautiful setting inside the hall as is such a period piece. Was confused on the pizza information. We would have loved to get a pizza but could not figure out how and when that was supposed to happen. Was that supposed to be before the play? During intermission. Just could not figure that one out. Otherwise, absolutely loved the whole event. Actor was amazing and so true to character. Well done! 5 stars. Pam and Tim

A thoroughly researched and very well presented talk

Review of The Famous Witches of Samlesbury Hall

It was interesting but not much about witches more about history - not what I was expecting.
Amazing venue and knowledge from the speakers who were also lovely.
