SUMMARY:Jekyll & Hyde | Faversham Assembly Rooms
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place at Faversham Assembly Rooms. \n\nUtterson the lawyer has a strange case on his hands. One involving blackmail\, murder – and his close friend Doctor Henry Jekyll. On the surface\, it seems like Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde couldn’t be more different people\, but there is a dark secret that ties them both together. \nThrough a series of interviews\, overheard conversations and outright confession\, Utterson slowly uncovers the grisly facts that link the\ncelebrated doctor to the monstrous Mr Hyde. But in this unbelievable story\, what can possibly be the truth? \nAward-winning performers Amelia Ace Armande and Joshua Crisp reanimate this classic Gothic horror. Morphing seamlessly between the cast of characters\, the pair conjure up murder on the misty streets of Victorian London in a delicious blend of original text\, sinuous physicality and dark humour.

SUMMARY:WiFi Wars
DESCRIPTION:Due to unforeseen circumstances\, we have had to reschedule this event from 26th April to 15th November. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you then. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom classic TV game shows to zen-like word puzzles\, from retro video games to modern first person shooters\, WiFi Wars has something for everyone in its truly original whistlestop tour of all the ways you can have fun\, in public. \nThe entire audience competes\, both as teams and as individuals\, on games\, quizzes and more that are magically beamed into their smartphones and tablets using WiFi Wars’ Guinness World Record-Breaking tech\, developed in residency at London’s prestigious Royal Institution. \nHosted by comedian Steve McNeil (team captain on the hit TV show “Dara O’Briain’s Go 8 Bit”)\, WiFi Wars is the Award-Winning must-see show that’s like nothing you’ve seen before. As teams and players thrive and fail\, each show’s unique narrative emerges hilariously in real time\, with freshly-minted heroes becoming local legends in every place they visit. \nDISCLAIMER: ENSURE YOU BRING A SMART DEVICE (phone/tablet) FOR EACH PLAYER – essentially you just need something with a touch-screen and a web-browser installed.  \nAlso\, make sure it’s got some battery charge in it as you’ll use it to play along with the entire show\, but don’t worry – it doesn’t hugely drain your battery.  \nAnd you don’t need to download an app or install anything in advance\, we’ll get you all set up when you arrive.
