About this Event
From Rare Species Theatre Company, creators of cult hits Frome - The Fecund Coming , Saggers Plays Pop and Mojo Moves.
Come and join us on a silent disco tour of Frome, Somerset on Valentine's night for a daft celebratory hour of singing, dancing and loving.
Expect a proper romantic soundtrack plus some epic sing along & disco favourites to get you into the mood for self love.
You'll head off from the Valentines Lamp on Catherine Street and take in some of the town's beautiful and famous landmarks on a 60 minute trail.
It's the perfect way to fall in love with 2025, the town of Frome and yourself.
So, forget all your cares and pop your gladrags on.
Please dress up for a first date but wear comfortable shoes. We are walking around 1.5 miles through gently hilly streets on pavements and on roads. Please also feel free to take pictures during the walk but don't fall back from the group in doing so. Be mindful of traffic and humans. Wearing headphones and being immersed in the music can make you less aware of them. The roads and streets could be busy with jilted lovers and any cars and potential hazards will be real.
There will be times that we stop to dance and you are welcome to bring a drink (water or something stronger) but please bear in mind we won't be stopping for a comfort break. Try not to bring too much to carry as it may hinder your ability to join in and please do join in! These tours are partly what you make them by participating whole heartedly in a joyful celebration.
The walk will last approximately 60 minutes and will leave on time. We can’t wait for latecomers, so please be sure to arrive on time to avoid missing the walk and forfeiting your ticket price. Guests waive all liability for damage, injury or loss on tours.
Our tour will finish in central Frome and may overrun by a few minutes depending on what and whom we encounter on our journey!
Headphones wil be provided at the start of the event and volume can be adjusted to each individual but we reccommend listening quite loud to enhance the experience. Please arrive in good time to be given your headset and adjust the volume to your taste.
Advised child age 16 and above - under 18s will not be permitted to join the walk if they are not with a responsible adult.
