SUMMARY:Christmas Gothic
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to welcome Dyad Productions back to Faversham\, following their hugely successful first visit here presenting “A Room of One’s Own” last year\, with haunting tales of the festive season “Christmas Gothic”. \nChristmas: a time to remember the past\, celebrate the present\, and look to the future; a time of feasts and festivities; of holly and mistletoe; a time of visits and visitations. A time of ghosts \nCome in from the cold and enter into the Christmas spirit as a dark and spectral woman tells haunting tales of the festive season\, lighting a candle to the frailties of human nature and illuminating the cold and chilling depths of the bleak\, wintry dark… \nFollowing the international touring success that was Female Gothic\, Dyad Productions resurrects a Victorian tradition by presenting three seasonal tales of terror to scintillate the gooseflesh for dark Christmas nights. This dark celebration of Christmas is adapted and performed by Rebecca Vaughan (Lady Susan\, A Room of One’s Own\, Austen’s Women\, I\, Elizabeth\, Female Gothic). \nPraise for Dyad Productions:\n“A macabre masterpiece. Ghostly\, grisly and gorgeous. Don’t miss it” (Three Weeks)\n“Truly extraordinary… one of the most exciting young performers on the British stage” (British Theatre Guide)\n“Holds the audience in the palm of its hand… a near perfect piece of theatre” (The Scotsman)\n“Perfection… Vaughan is simply sublime” (Huffington Post) \n\nThis event will take place at the ‘The Arden Theatre\, Leslie Smith Dr\, Faversham ME13 8PW’

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.
