All the while mini-tours of the fascinating collection of working antique printing presses are in full swing while other guests get to print their own Victorian Holiday Cards & Gift tags with type and cuts from that era on Victorian presses (Talk about a unique Christmas keepsake for a special loved one!)
Many will be serenaded while munching on a Holiday Lunch of Bangers, Gingerbread and Punch (part of the admission) by Capt. Jack & his 1895 Player-Organ cranking out old carols as well as “Steerforth” from David Copperfield with his Holiday Dulcimer plus “Lucy Mannette” from Tale of Two Cities on her Christmas guitar.
Guests will be filing into our theatre to meet up with Charles Dickens himself as he changes his lecture into an “interactive “event using audience members as part of his cast for a fun rendition of his classic Christmas Carol!
****Returning This Year!! Have a “tin-type” victorian photograph done of you, your family or friends c/o Victorian Photographers!!! The Bailey Denton Photographers…Even if you aren’t dressed victorian they can supply some costume pieces that will send you back in time. Great Holiday Gift Idea!
