FAMILIES were given the chance to enjoy free outdoor interactive theatre in Whitchurch last month.
Over three weekends in June, the Whitchurch Conservation Group welcomed hundreds of people to the Whitchurch Open Air Theatre.
Performances were put on by visiting professional theatre companies.

The events were made possible through funding from the Government’s Rural Prosperity Fund and was part of the wider Basingstoke Festival.
Conservation group chair Lucie Follett Maitland said: “We've loved seeing so many children and their families having fun and really enjoying such enriching and uplifting theatre. We are so grateful to Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council for all their support.”
The group also received funding from the Four Lanes Trust to be able to buy picnic mats for audiences to use.
