SUMMARY:The Book of Mormon
DESCRIPTION:Not for the easily offended!! \nThe Book of Mormon follows the story of two young Mormon missionaries\, Elder Price and Elder Cunningham\, working to spread the word of the Latter Day Saints to the locals in a small town in Uganda. The LDS church members realise how daunting their task is when they discover the villagers are more concerned with the AIDS epidemic\, oppression\, and starvation. \nAnyone familiar with South Park or the work of Trey Parker and Matt Stone would know that The Book of Mormon can get rather bawdy and crass at times! That being said\, despite Parker and Stone’s in-your-face subject matter\, the musical never received a backlash from members of the Church of Latter-Day Saints. In fact\, the Mormon Church even stated the musical may be “entertaining for a day”\, while also going on to add that “the book is always better” when it comes to theatrical adaptations. \nWe have great seats in rows C and D of the stalls \nCoach pick up: \nWitham – Bus stop outside Paddy Power Newland Street Witham CM8 1AH – 1435hrs\nGreat Notley\, Entrance to White Courts Estate\, Windermere Drive\, CM77 7UB – 1500hrs\nDunmow\, Opposite The Flitch House\, High Street\, CM6 1AE – 1520hrs\nTakeley\, Opposite The Four Ashes\, Dunmow Road\, CM22 6SB – 1530hrs

SUMMARY:Oliver
DESCRIPTION:Be transported to 1830s London in Oliver!\, Lionel Bart’s iconic musical that has been revised in an all-new production by Cameron Mackintosh with director and choreographer Matthew Bourne. \nOliver! in London is based on Charles Dickens’s 1838 novel\, Oliver Twist. The musical tells the classic tale of a young orphan\, Oliver Twist\, who is seeking a home and family. Things aren’t easy on the streets of London\, and soon enough\, Oliver becomes part of a gang of child pickpockets. The musical examines the London underworld through a child’s perspective and explores themes of friendship\, good vs. evil\, poverty\, and crime. \nThis exciting new revival boasts a stellar cast\, including Simon Lipkin (Guys and Dolls\, The Beaker Girls) as Fagin and Aaron Sidwell (EastEnders\, Wicked) as Bill Sikes. The role of Oliver Twist is shared by Jack Philpott (The Witches\, Matilda)\, Raphael Korniets (The Snowman)\, and Cian Eagle-Service (The Witches\, Les Misérables). \nWith a captivating story and an exceptional score\, including songs such as Food Glorious Food\, I’d Do Anything\, and Consider Yourself\, it’s no wonder that over 60 years after it premiered\, Oliver! is still a hit with audiences. \nCoach pick up \nWitham – Bus stop outside Paddy Power Newland Street Witham CM8 1AH – 1435hrs\nGreat Notley\, Entrance to White Courts Estate\, Windermere Drive\, CM77 7UB – 1500hrs\nDunmow\, Opposite The Flitch House\, High Street\, CM6 1AE – 1520hrs\nTakeley\, Opposite The Four Ashes\, Dunmow Road\, CM22 6SB – 1530hrs

Chefs show pages from the beautifully illustrated book for the whole carriage to follow. A smile grows on your face as you watch your child become absorbed in the wonderment of the story.\n​\nAs your adventure continues\, you notice other key elements of the story — both inside and outside your train — springing to life. Watch and listen as another scene unfolds on-board before your eyes.\n​\nUpon arrival at the North Pole\, keep your eyes peeled for Santa’s sleigh and Christmas trees. Watch out for Santa waving and\, when the train stops\, listen out for the carriage door to slam as Santa gets on board. After the train departs the North Pole for the return voyage home\, you soon notice that the adventure isn’t over. Santa appears in your midst to present each passenger with their very own “First Gift of Christmas”\, a silver bell from his sleigh. Thinking back to the story\, you might like to remind the children to check their pockets for holes!\nWe encourage our guests\, young and old to wear pyjamas just as in the Film. Children love it and if you can persuade our older guests\, Mums\, Dads\, Granny and Grandpa to also join in\, the atmosphere in the train comes alive for a truly magical experience!\n​\nArriving at East Dereham Railway Station for around 1pm we will first enter a marquee where there is chance to see some of the cast and grab a hot drink.  We board the train for the 2.15pm departure.  We will be sat in the Delux carriages\, and everyone that has purchased a seat gets a hot chocolate\, a cookie\, a souvenir ceramic mug to take  home and a magic bell that is given to everyone from Father Christmas whilst on the train. \nWe should get back onto the Coach for around 5pm and we will head home.  Traffic permitting\, arriving home for around 7pm \nDelux 1st Class Seating Souvenir Ceramic Mug\, Hot Chocolate\, a Cookie and a Polar Express bell for everyone. \nCost is £82.50 per person aged 2 and over.  Under 2yrs are £25pp and we only have 10 places available.They will not have their own seat on the train (they will ride on an adults lap) and will not receive a cookie or hot chocolate or mug\, of course as an adult you can give them yours. They will have their own coach seat which will have a 3 point seat belt should you want to secure a car seat. \nTrain seating are on Tables of 4 and 2 in each bay. Tickets will be in the following denomination: \nTable of 6 – £495 \nTable of 4 – £330 \nTable of 3 – £247.50 \nTable of 2 – £165 \nSo\, if you are a 5\, you will need to purchase a 3 and 2 and you will be sat adjacent to each other – not in the same bay of 6 as I can’t leave a single seat. If you are a 7\, then you book a 4 and a 3.  Again\, you will be adjacent to each other\, as a 3 and a 4.\nIf booking an under 2 they do not count towards your table capacity. ie.a family of 7 containing 6 over the age of 2 will book a table for 6 and an under 2 place. \nI will have all your tickets and will hand them to you on the day. \nOur time slot for to board the train is 2.15pm  \nCoach pick up \nWitham\, Outside Paddy Power\, 84 Newland Street Witham CM8 1AH – 1010hrs\nBroomfield\, The Angel bus stop OPPOSITE The Angel Main Road CM1 7AH – 1020hrs\nGreat Leighs\, Opposite The Castle\, Main Road\, CM3 1NE – 1035hrs\nGreat Notley\, Entrance to White Courts Estate\, Windermere Drive\, CM77 7UB – 1040hrs\nDunmow\, Opposite The Flitch House\, High Street\, CM6 1AE – 1100hrs\nTakeley\, Opposite Four Ashes Dunmow Road\, CM22 6SB – 1110hrs

SUMMARY:Book of Mormon - Tiptree route
DESCRIPTION:Not for the easily offended!! \nThe Book of Mormon follows the story of two young Mormon missionaries\, Elder Price and Elder Cunningham\, working to spread the word of the Latter Day Saints to the locals in a small town in Uganda. The LDS church members realise how daunting their task is when they discover the villagers are more concerned with the AIDS epidemic\, oppression\, and starvation. \nAnyone familiar with South Park or the work of Trey Parker and Matt Stone would know that The Book of Mormon can get rather bawdy and crass at times! That being said\, despite Parker and Stone’s in-your-face subject matter\, the musical never received a backlash from members of the Church of Latter-Day Saints. In fact\, the Mormon Church even stated the musical may be “entertaining for a day”\, while also going on to add that “the book is always better” when it comes to theatrical adaptations. \nPlease note this show is due to finish 30 minutes before the others so there should be time for a quick drink before getting the coach home. \nCoach pick up\nTiptree – The Centre Bus stop\, Church Road Tiptree CO5 0HF – 1440hrs\nKelvedon – Bus stop opposite the post office\, High Street Kelvedon CO5 9AG –  1500hrs\nWitham – Bus stop opposite Paddy Power Newland Street Witham CM8 1AH – 1520hrs
