Connect with one another through laughter and play, drawing on themes from The Farmer and The Clown, Bristol Old Vic's half-term family show.
Get silly together with crafts, trails, workshops and more. Along the way, you’ll learn about some funny people and circus scenes that appeared on Bristol Old Vic's stage in years gone by.
All ages are welcome and activities are free of charge, but workshops can be booked in advance.
