Summer Family Day | Tales from the Lighthouse
A musical voyage full of stories, songs and the sea…

‘Tales from the Lighthouse’ is written and performed by Oliver Bishop, with original songs by David Gibb. Live music comes from two-time BBC Radio 2 Folk Award Nominee Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne. Join us for the perfect voyage into the world of theatre, puppetry and music for children.
