Mud, blood and stiff upper-lips! Join the critically-acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company on a breathless race through the centuries in this delightfully inventive show that tells the entire story of Britain in under 2 hours. Have you ever wanted to see the life of Henry VIII told as a romantic comedy or the tale of the Spanish Armada reimagined as a light operetta? Probably not. But that won't stop The Pantaloons retelling great moments from the country's past in a variety of surprising genres! Featuring live music, audience interaction and wild historical inaccuracy.
"Laugh-out-loud funny... endless verve and utterly infectious joy."
Northwich Guardian
Frequently asked questions
Can I bring my own food and drink?
Customers are welcome to bring their own food and soft drinks to events at the Bowl, but, due to licensing conditions, no alcohol or glass is allowed in from outside. There is a licensed bar inside open one hour before the show and there will be security conducting bag searches upon arrival.
Can I bring my dog?
With the exception of service dogs, no dogs are allowed to be brought into the Bowl, for the comfort of all customers. Dogs are allowed in the wider park area.
Do you offer free tickets for my carer?
Customers who are wheelchair users or are in receipt of PIP, Attendance Allowance or who have a Certificate Of Visual Impairment, are able to reserve a complimentary companion ticket. One full price ticket (adult, child, student) must have already been purchased and proof of this purchase, along with proof of receipt of the above, must be emailed to events@southswindon-pc.gov.uk.
Do I need to bring a chair?
Yes, there is no seating at the Bowl and, therefore, to guarantee that you have a seat, please bring a chair along to the event.
