Theatre by the Lake

Holiday reference: ATL

Print this page

Against the dramatic setting that is the Lake District, the Theatre by the Lake is surely Britain’s most scenic. The landscape is matched by the quality of the performances, which will be complemented by backstage tours and pre-theatre talks on the processes involved from page to stage. In 2012 optional walks will be available on two days.

Holiday highlights:

  • Innovative productions in a stunning location
  • Backstage tour giving a fascinating insight into the latest technology and workings of a modern theatre
  • Contrasting performances of the intimate Studio with exciting new plays by contemporary writers and more traditional favourites in the larger Main house
  • Talks in advance of each play and post theatre discussions in which guests have their say are a popular and rewarding part of the holiday 

What’s included:

  • Tickets to two performances at the Theatre by the Lake
  • Backstage tour and talk by a theatre director
  • Experienced tutor who enhances your knowledge and understanding of the plays
  • Comfortable en-suite bedrooms at our 4-star Country House
  • Full Board accommodation with all meals included
