The Beaconsfield Séance - Tickets on sale now!
First show - October 16th
Have you ever wondered what it was like to attend a Victorian séance? This is your final chance to find out as the Beaconsfield Séance returns for a short run of immersive theatrical performances.
Travel back to the 1880s as James Peake welcomes you to his home to marvel at the antics of Madame Evangeline Grey, Spirit Medium and Conduit of the Otherworldly. Experience séance magic first hand, then stay for a talk-back where Madame Grey reveals how she did her tricks and why talking to ghosts was such a popular pastime in the 19th Century.
This is the final year we plan to offer the Beaconsfield Séance in its current form, and tickets sell out fast. Book yours today!
