SUMMARY:Vivaldi's Four Seasons and the Lark Ascending by Candlelight
DESCRIPTION:Experience breathtaking music by some of classical music’s greatest composers\, performed by some of the country’s finest classical musicians\, all presented in stunning candlelight. \nAt the heart of the concert is Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons\, the most recorded work in classical music and a defining showpiece for solo violin. Each concerto depicts a different season\, shaped by accompanying poems – possibly written by Vivaldi himself. Across the four concertos\, Vivaldi transforms the natural world into vivid musical scenes\, evoking birdsong and buzzing flies\, harvest celebrations\, drunken revellers\, barking dogs\, summer storms and winter ice. \nAlongside this\, Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending\, composed on the eve of the First World War\, offers a more reflective perspective. Inspired by George Meredith’s poem\, it captures a pastoral world on the brink of change\, its soaring violin line suggesting a lark gliding high above the mechanised world below\, “lost on his aerial rings / In light\, and then the fancy sings.” \nOpening the programme we have Mozart’s Overture to The Marriage of Figaro\, an opera drawn from Beaumarchais’ recently banned comedy\, in which a philandering count attempts to seduce his servant’s fiancée\, only to be outmanoeuvred by the servants and his own long-suffering wife. \nWhether you’re already in the know or completely new to classical music\, this is a programme to be enjoyed by all. \nProgramme to include:\n\nMozart – Overture to The Marriage of Figaro\nVaughan Williams – The Lark Ascending\nMozart – Flute Quartet in D\nVivaldi – The Four Seasons \nARTISTS\nHannah Perowne Soloist \nLondon Concertante

SUMMARY:Halloween Adventure Trail & Crafts at Belvoir Castle
DESCRIPTION:Belvoir Castle’s Halloween trail is returning to the Adventure Playground and Animal Park\, with a new run of craft sessions launching in the Retail Village at the point where the trail concludes.\n\nThe adventure starts well before that\, though. Across Belvoir’s adventure playground\, spell ingredients have been hidden among the climbing frames and walkways\, setting children the task of tracking them all down to brew a counter-curse. It’s a proper piece of Halloween theatre rather than a simple trail marker hunt – every child who completes it earns the official title of Belvoir Castle Curse Breaker\, along with a treat to mark the achievement. That sense of quest and reward carries the story from the Adventure Playground to the Animal Park and Retail Village\, where visitors follow the seasonal trail through to its conclusion.\n\nVisitors following the seasonal trail arrive\, story complete\, in the Retail Village – and it’s here that the estate has added a programme of Halloween-themed craft activities\, giving families a tactile way to round off their visit. Rather than the trail simply ending\, the crafts extend it: children can create their own take-home pieces inspired by the characters with the helpful hands of the Belvoir Witches.\n\nThe craft sessions are priced at £4.50 and have been designed with flexibility in mind. They work as a natural add-on for anyone already visiting the Adventure Playground for the trail\, but they also stand alone – a shorter\, self-contained activity for families who want a Halloween outing without committing to the full walk. That dual approach reflects a wider shift in how heritage sites like Belvoir are thinking about seasonal programming: less about a single ticketed experience\, and more about a menu of options that visitors can mix and match according to time\, weather\, and how long small legs are willing to walk.\n\nSessions can be booked in advance\, and spaces are also available on the day for those who haven’t reserved ahead\, subject to availability.\nGardens & Adventure Playground Tickets are £10 per adult\, £6 per child.\nHalloween Crafts are £4.50 per child.\nBelvoir Animal Park will be open every day in October Half Term\, 9:30am – 4pm\, not just the weekends.

DESCRIPTION:Following the huge success of “Rock of Ages” at Stamford Corn Exchange Theatre\, Seaton Starlights are proud to present their next show\, the iconic; ‘We Will Rock You’. We can’t wait to dust off the guitars\, let our hair down once more\, and melt some faces!! \nThis incredible jukebox musical\, features the legendary music of Queen\, story written by the utterly hilarious Ben Elton and original vocal score by Brian May\, Roger Taylor and Mike Dixon. We Will Rock You takes audiences on a journey to a future where musical instruments are banned.\nOur beloved rock music is a thing of the past\, just a distant memory… until the “Bohemians”\, a rebel group with rock in their veins\, rise up to restore the power of rock. \nFeaturing classics such as ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’\, ‘Another One Bites the Dust’\, ‘Somebody to Love’\, ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’\, and many other Queen mega hits\, climaxing with ‘We Will Rock You’\, this show is a music lovers dream.

SUMMARY:Murder on the Railway- Halloween: House of Murder
DESCRIPTION:Have you got the super-sleuth skills to find and solve the clues? \nThe detective persona to interrogate the suspects? \nThe judge and jury deliberation to identify the killer? \nThen our Murder Mystery evenings are the perfect way to enjoy an evening with friends\, a ride on the train\, a delightful bottle of wine and a savoury snack basket (snack basket and bottle of wine served per table of 2). The snack baskets are suitable for both gluten-free and vegan diets. \n£120 per table of two \nWhat can you expect from all our Murder Mysteries?\nA fully interactive and immersive evening where you will: \n• Have an opportunity to investigate the murder scene\n• Be given evidence to review and decipher\n• Have the opportunity to interrogate each suspect at your table\n• Enjoy a snack box and bottle of wine (between 2 people)\n• Have a ride behind one of our heritage trains (usually steam\, but not guaranteed)\n• Our on-train bar will be open from 18:00 (located in our Buffet Car) serving a variety of drinks for you to purchase \nThe evening is fully scripted (apart from the improvisation element depending on what questions are asked): nothing is left to chance. Every look\, line\, movement and positioning is precise\, to give the outcome we desire. Our team of writers and actors work tirelessly on their characters\, back story and preparation for questions. In fact\, it takes more time to prepare for that than it does for these fabulous actors to be script down! \nThere can be only one winning team. So it is important to write down as many clues about each suspect and in general that you uncover. The team with the most clues will be victorious. \nItinerary\nCheck in at 5:30pm\nCurtain up at 6:00pm\nTake your seats on the train at 6:45pm\nTrain departure at 7:00pm\nArrive back at Wansford at 8:10pm\nConclusion and evening ends at 8:45pm \nA self-support group of social outcasts meet regularly to try to cope with their Halloween-rooted anxieties. This month’s unconditional positive regard goes right out the window when one of the members gets murdered. The remaining suspects need to prove their innocence to weed out the guilty party. \nOver 18’s only
