Theatre Tours
Book for the whole familyCombining myth, fact and Bristolian folklore, our Theatre Tours expertly weave past and present into a thrilling and informative experience.
Gain an in-depth knowledge of Bristol Old Vic’s two-and-a-half-century history with one of our experienced tour guides who know our story inside-out: from the origin of the Georgian theatre’s design, to intricate details of our 2018 renovation.
Running every Wednesday (and some Saturdays) at 10am and 11am, this is the perfect outing for anyone interested in theatre and Bristol Old Vic’s rich story. A socially-distanced experience, our Theatre Tours are designed for family groups or 'bubbles', and we can only accommodate one group per booking. Groups can be any size up to a maximum of 20 people.
