Four cameos from Bell House’s long and fascinating history will be told in promenade

performances this Christmas:

Christmas Eve 1772 will amusingly recall a musical evening in the same room in which it originally took place.

Something’s Cooking allows a peep into preparations taking place in the original kitchen for an anticipated celebration in 1851.

Elegy 1919 sees authors G.K. Chesterton and Maurice Baring joining Nan Lucas, the then owner of Bell House, to remember Nan’s brother and their great friend, killed in 1916.

Coronation Day 1953 hilariously relates the story of Dulwich College housemaster and his wife contrived to watch the events of the day, on the then boarding school’s 9” TV, without interruptions from the boys.

The recommended age for this performance is 12+.
