SEASIDE DAY EXCURSION

From iconic tourist attractions to beachfront cool, Brighton is a treasure trove of things to do and places to go.

Ever since royal party animal George IV fell in love with Brighton back in the 18th Century, the city has been a magnet for visitors in search of fun, frolics and fresh sea air. With its majestic Regency squares and crescents, iconic Royal Pavilion and famous piers, today Brighton is as well-known for being a welcoming and diverse city with a passion for culture, creativity and sustainability as it is for its historic landmarks.

From the stunning heritage of the Royal Pavilion, Regency architecture and Victorian aquariums to the seaside fun of Brighton Pier and the famous pebble beach, Brighton offers something for every walk of life.

A great place to visit is the spectacular seaside palace of the Prince Regent (George IV) transformed by John Nash between 1815 and 1822 into one of the most dazzling and exotic buildings in the British Isles.   The Pavilion houses furniture and works of art including original pieces lent by HM The Queen and a magnificent display of Regency silver-gilt.   The Royal Pavilion Tearoom, with its fabulous balcony, overlooks the Pavilion gardens, has also been returned to its original Regency splendour.

If you’re looking to put a creative edge into your shopping, Brighton Lanes offer a shopper’s paradise of independent shops and boutiques.   Once the heart of the fishing town Brighton Lanes’ historic quarter is a fabulous maze of twisting alleyways, offering an extraordinary mix of antiques and jewellery shops nestling alongside specialist contemporary and designer boutique fashion.

NOTE:  Price is for Return Coach Travel.  No admissions are included in the price.

EVENING PERFORMANCE

Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, Matilda The Musical is the captivating musical masterpiece from the Royal Shakespeare Company that revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination and the inspiring story of a girl who dares to change her destiny.

Matilda follows the story of Matilda Wormwood, a bright little girl who loves to immerse herself in books. But Matilda is discarded and belittled by both her dimwitted parents — her father insists on calling her a boy and harps on about her “stupidity” for preferring reading to watching the telly – and her hostile headmistress, the wicked Miss Trunchbull.

Matilda may be reclusive but she has an ever-growing imagination and very sharp mind, and with caring teacher Miss Honey Matilda dreams of a better life, daring to take a stand against unjust forces and to grasp her destiny in her own, tiny hands.

This bold, enchanting and ingenious production is directed by Matthew Warchus, with book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by award-winning musician and comedian Tim Minchin.

Camden Lock Market, by the canal, was the original craft market, established in 1974, but now has a much wider spectrum of goods on sale.

Both this and the ever popular Camden Stables Market – centre of the alternative fashion scene, Camden (Buck Street) Market and Inverness Street Market – which thrived on local trade long before tourists discovered Camden.

It is at the weekend that the market scene jumps fully into life with all stalls and shops at the above-mentioned markets fully trading..

There is always something happening in the centre of Camden Town.   Multitudes of shops and restaurants spill out on to the busy Main Streets. Days in Camden start slow and easy – shops and stalls open around 10am.

A walk along the pretty canal towpath from Regent’s Park will also take you into the middle of the markets.

MATINEE PERFORMANCE

Based on the 2003 film of the same name, but there’s a major difference between the Elf film and Elf on stage.

The Elf musical is based on the hit Christmas film of the same name.   Elf centres around Buddy, a lovable yet awkward misfit.   As a young boy, Buddy accidentally found himself inside Santa’s sack and eventually grew up in the North Pole with Santa and his elves.   though he’s raised as an elf alongside other elves, Buddy struggles to fit in with fellow hardworking elves.

Once Buddy gets older, he learns that he isn’t an elf, but a human.   How is this possible?

To learn where he really comes from, Buddy heads to New York to reunite with his birth father. But Buddy’s never ventured outside of the North Pole before.   How will he behave?   What happens in New York?   How do you get around? While in New York, Buddy learns a great deal about himself and the wider world.

And with Santa crashing in Central Park, can Buddy the Elf share the Christmas spirit?

Join us for a magical journey on the Polar Express

Prepare to be surrounded by the magic and wonder of the Christmas season! As you and your family take in the festive decorations at THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride station, you can almost hear the faint sound of sleigh bells in the distance and the fun begins.

THE POLAR EXPRESS™ is waiting for you at the platform. Wait for the train Conductor to invite you and the other passengers to climb aboard, shouting “All aboooooard!”.   Anticipation builds as you step onto the Train to be escorted to your seat by the Chefs from the film.   Before long, scenes from the film come to life as dancing Chefs and Waiters arrive to serve cookies and hot chocolate.   The children are invited to engage these exciting characters who are eager to hear from the youngsters about what makes the Christmas season special to them.   While the hot chocolate lingers in your mouth and warms your tummy, you will listen as the story of The Polar Express is told in its entirety.   Chefs show pages from the beautifully illustrated book for the whole carriage to follow.   A smile grows on your face as you watch your child become absorbed in the wonderment of the story.

As your adventure continues, you notice other key elements of the story — both inside and outside your train — springing to life.   Watch and listen as another scene unfolds on-board before your eyes.

Upon arrival at the North Pole, keep your eyes peeled for Santa’s sleigh, a bag of toys and a giant Christmas tree. Watch out for Santa waving and, when the train stops, listen out for the carriage door to slam as Santa gets on board. After the train departs the North Pole for the return voyage home, you soon notice that the adventure isn’t over. Santa appears in your midst to present each passenger with their very own “First Gift of Christmas”, a silver bell from his sleigh.

Thinking back to the story, you might like to remind the children to check their pockets for holes!

Chefs on board lead the passengers in singing favourite Christmas Carols as the train heads back to Dereham Station.   Here passengers depart the train and make their way to the great gift shop with a range of gifts from toys, to Exclusive Polar Express Merchandise.

We encourage our guests, young and old to wear pyjamas just as in the Film.   Children love it and if you can persuade our older guests, Mums, Dads, Granny and Grandpa to also join in, the atmosphere in the train comes alive for a truly magical experience!

This is where your participation in the story of The Polar Express comes to an end.   However, our hope for your family is that your Christmas season has been enriched and memories from your experience will endure for years to come.

These are Premium tickets that includes Hot Chocolate, ceramic Polar Express mug, and a little bell. A lovely keepsake of a wonderful trip.

Join us for a magical journey on the Polar Express

Prepare to be surrounded by the magic and wonder of the Christmas season! As you and your family take in the festive decorations at THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride station, you can almost hear the faint sound of sleigh bells in the distance and the fun begins.

THE POLAR EXPRESS™ is waiting for you at the platform. Wait for the train Conductor to invite you and the other passengers to climb aboard, shouting “All aboooooard!”.   Anticipation builds as you step onto the Train to be escorted to your seat by the Chefs from the film.   Before long, scenes from the film come to life as dancing Chefs and Waiters arrive to serve cookies and hot chocolate.   The children are invited to engage these exciting characters who are eager to hear from the youngsters about what makes the Christmas season special to them.   While the hot chocolate lingers in your mouth and warms your tummy, you will listen as the story of The Polar Express is told in its entirety.   Chefs show pages from the beautifully illustrated book for the whole carriage to follow.   A smile grows on your face as you watch your child become absorbed in the wonderment of the story.

As your adventure continues, you notice other key elements of the story — both inside and outside your train — springing to life.   Watch and listen as another scene unfolds on-board before your eyes.

Upon arrival at the North Pole, keep your eyes peeled for Santa’s sleigh, a bag of toys and a giant Christmas tree. Watch out for Santa waving and, when the train stops, listen out for the carriage door to slam as Santa gets on board. After the train departs the North Pole for the return voyage home, you soon notice that the adventure isn’t over. Santa appears in your midst to present each passenger with their very own “First Gift of Christmas”, a silver bell from his sleigh.

Thinking back to the story, you might like to remind the children to check their pockets for holes!

Chefs on board lead the passengers in singing favourite Christmas Carols as the train heads back to Dereham Station.   Here passengers depart the train and make their way to the great gift shop with a range of gifts from toys, to Exclusive Polar Express Merchandise.

We encourage our guests, young and old to wear pyjamas just as in the Film.   Children love it and if you can persuade our older guests, Mums, Dads, Granny and Grandpa to also join in, the atmosphere in the train comes alive for a truly magical experience!

This is where your participation in the story of The Polar Express comes to an end.   However, our hope for your family is that your Christmas season has been enriched and memories from your experience will endure for years to come.

These are Premium tickets that includes Hot Chocolate, ceramic Polar Express mug, and a little bell. A lovely keepsake of a wonderful trip.

The longest running play of all time

Having been at home at St. Martins Theatre in the West End for an incredible 70 years, The Mousetrap is still keeping millions of people from every corner of the globe on the edge of their seats.

The Mouse Trap first entered the record books in 1958 when it became the longest running show of any kind in the history of British theatre.   The incredible show continues to attract audiences from all over the world.

In her own inimitable style, Dame Agatha Christie has created an atmosphere of shuddering suspense and a brilliantly intricate plot where murder lurks around every corner.

The Mouse Trap gathers a group of people together at a stately countryside guesthouse in the converted Monkswell Manor.   A snow storm cuts the patrons off and they discover, to their horror, a killer is amongst them. Which one is the murderer?   Who will be their next victim?

The characters become increasingly suspicious as the show goes on until each and everyone of their shameful pasts is revealed up until the last, when the moment the identity of the killer and motive are finally revealed.

The best-loved murder mystery of all time by the best-selling novelist of all time.
