Site Specific

Improvising actors from North Country Theatre bring drama and life to exhibitions and places of historic interest. Whether it is a period piece for a themed event, engaging visitors in role play or creating a labyrinth we provide an enhanced visitor experience. We can also work with venues to develop and train volunteer guides so they gain a greater appreciation of their audience and make their tour sound fresh and new every time they present. Some of our partners include English Heritage, National Trust, Kiplin Hall (nr Richmond) and The Dales Countryside Museum, Hawes
