Cock-eyed Cake Creating

The Eccentric Englishman 21 St Giles' Street, northampton, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom

We're not asking you to bake a cake, but we are giving you the opportunity to decorate one! We thought this would be great fun! We’ll bake a cake and you bring your imagination (and maybe a steady hand… depending on how much Prosecco you’ve had). This delightfully daft evening is perfect for friends to meet up, have a giggle, and create an edible masterpiece ..... no soggy bottoms allowed! You’ll get all the materials you need, plus wrapping bits so you can take your creation home (if you can resist eating it first). There’ll be tasty nibbles, and a glass of Prosecco or Nosecco waiting for you on arrival. Price: £25.00 per person which includes all materials, gift wrap extras, nibbles & a welcome drink. As usual, a non-refundable deposit of £10.00 per person is required to confirm your places. Booking is essential, so please call us to save your seat at the decorating table.

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

“It’s not breaking a code that matters, it’s where you go from there” Mastermind. Code breaker. Maverick.

From triumph to tragedy, get to know a human being who loved, lost and never stopped asking questions in a quest for truth and understanding in this new production of Hugh Whitemore’s Breaking The Code.
