Want something to look forward to once summer is over? Book now to let our Lantern Youth Theatres cheer you up!
The Importance of Being Earnest is a joyful romp by the witty Oscar Wilde - made even faster-paced in this shortened version. With two sets of lovers, two men pretending to be 'Ernest,' a pair of comical middle-aged romantics, and the formidable Lady Bracknell, this speedy sojourn in the delightful world of Wilde is a treat!
Joseph the Dreamer is a fresh take on the story of Joseph, scattered with musical excerpts. Polished yet delightfully silly, this production will have you laughing while drawing you into its colourful characters. Prepare to be amazed by the talented ensemble, who play everything from sheep to kings, camels to prisoners!
Tried and tested in the Studio Theatre to an audience of parents and friends; we are now bringing these shows down to the mainstage to share with our wider Lantern audience. Invite all your friends; they won't be disappointed!
