This weekend the Town Hall throws open its doors for a fantastic FREE Event - The Giant Sunday Funday on 15 September, from 10am to 3pm.

The Funday features a host of free workshops, activities and taster sessions and so much more. Visitors can also take a look behind the scenes at the venue, with tours of the theatre stage and dressing rooms, and demonstrations of lighting and sound. In the afternoon, the cast of the Christmas pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk will be on hand to meet visitors and share in the fun and the cast members are hoping to meet as many of the public as they can. Dame Mary Trott is so excited she can't wait .....

Hi Dame Mary Trott here,

I really hope I'll get to meet some of you at our family Fun Day on the 15th of September. We've got a wonderfully talented cast lined up for this year who'll be popping up around the building and it looks like it's going to be a great day with all sorts of activities and games to entertain everyone.

Don't forget you can join in and let us know what you think via Facebook and twitter. #magicbeansLTH
