Richard Leigh

Here at the Magic Theatre, they love this time of the year, they wish it was Hallowe'en all the year round. But for a few days only which is definitely a great treat for the Half Term Holidays, they celebrate Hallowe'en big style and turn their little theatre into 'The Spooky Magic Theatre'.

Families and friends gather in the dimly lit, creaky and kooky magic theatre to tell 'Ghost Stories'. Your storyteller and host is magician Richard Leigh.

Traditional Halowe'en party games are played, all with a magical twist. Great fun providing you don't mind hearing things that go bump in the night and you don't mind seeing ghosts.

Tricks and Treats galore. Bring a good pair of lungs to scream and be amazed.

Chains will rattle as a ghostly hand plays cards with the magician. For some, who dare to look at their reflection in the mirror, ghostly apparitions are strong.

For those who are really brave enough to play the magical game of trick or treat and risk the forfeit of doom, then please let the ghostly theatre manager know when you arrive.

The finale is strange. A head which is alive and yet there is no body, which breaths, talks and plays 'Apple Bobbing'. An old fairground sideshow called 'The Living Head'.

Ideally for children 6 years upwards. There is nothing too scary in the show. But a whole lot of fun.

Arrive in Fancy Dress Costumes and with your face painted is encouraged.
