Enjoy an epic live show:

Kick off your visit in the cosy, indoor heated theatre with a magical new tale from the brilliant Folksy Theatre: Pumpkin’s Got Talent Meet Pez, a pint sized pumpkin with superstar dreams and a heart full of hope.

When he hears about a big talent show in the next town, he sets off on a whimsical journey to discover his hidden gift and claim his moment in the spotlight. But there’s just one tiny snag…Pez doesn’t know what his talent is!

Expect giggles, gasps, and a whole lot of pumpkin powered inspiration in this delightful theatrical treat.
