Not recklessness, no-one would suggest such a course so irresponsibly, but a combination of ambition and practicality, as shown by Briggs and Douglas."

DOES THE PERFORMANCE GO ON IF IT RAINS?
If COVID-19 isn't going to stop us performing, then rain certainly isn't! A show will only be cancelled in extreme weather conditions. We have created this show so it can continue in wet weather so please do bring your waterproofs if the forecast isn't looking great. Due to sight lines we can't allow people to use umbrellas during the show. A refund would only be paid if we cancelled a performance. All updates on shows in poor weather will be announced on our social media pages and if a cancellation was to occur we would email you at the first convenience.
CAN I BRING BLANKETS/CHAIRS?
Our socially distanced Bubble Blanket Spaces are positioned on both grass and tarmac so you are of course allowed to bring blankets, cushions and small camping chairs/stools to sit on. Please note some areas of the site may be unsuitable for chairs due to the main audience area being located on a small hillside. Chairs that obstruct the views of others may also not be allowed.
CAN I BRING A PICNIC?
If you would like to bring your own picnic to enjoy before/during the show then you are more than welcome to do so and enjoy on your Bubble Blanket. Please also bring a rubbish bag to take any waste with you afterwards too!
