🎭 Bedford Drama Company presents An Evening of Tom Stoppard - The Place Theatre, Bedford
Time: 19:30 - 21:15
🗓 2026 DATES & TIME
▪️17th February - 21st January 2026
▪️Doors open: 7:00 PM
▪️Show start: 7.30PM
The Real Inspector Hound:
Moon and Birdboot, two drama critics, arrive to watch the performance of a new detective play, a parody of the conventional stage thriller. However the private lives of the critics become inextricably mixed with those of the play’s characters until Moon is shot dead and the real Inspector Hound proves to be… ?
Stoppard's play is an example of absurdism as well as farce, parody, and satire. Critics have often praised it as a witty depiction of the reviewer's craft.
If You’re Glad I’ll Be Frank:
To his astonishment Frank, a bus driver, recognises the voice of the GPO speaking clock as that of his long-lost wife. Determined to get her back, he forces his way into the inner sanctum of the Authorities to demand her release. She, meanwhile, still loving him, is almost broken by her never-ending recitation. Underlying the light-hearted story is a satiric comment on man’s servitude to the clock; and a reminder that Time itself is independent of the tick-tock of the clock.
A heap of hilarious characters and a witty script make a satiric comment on man's servitude to the clock.

Step into a colourful celebration of Chinese New Year this February half term with a fun, family-friendly programme designed for children of all ages. We’re open daily from 10.30am–4.30pm, with a free Chinese New Year trail running throughout the House, alongside creative crafts and a special drop-in workshop.
🐴 Chinese New Year Zodiac Trail
Can you spot all twelve Chinese zodiac animals hidden around the House? As families explore our historic interiors, children will search for each animal, learning about their meanings and stories along the way. This gentle, engaging trail encourages observation, curiosity, and plenty of excitement as young explorers tick off each zodiac sign they find.
🖍 Craft Activities
Get hands-on with a range of creative activities inspired by Chinese culture and New Year traditions:
🖌️ Chinese Calligraphy – Learn how to write the character for ‘horse’ in traditional Chinese script, following each brushstroke step by step.
🥠 Fortune Cookies – Craft your own paper fortune cookie to gift to a friend or loved one. Use our pre-written fortunes or write your own special message.
✏️ Colouring-In Station – A relaxed space for younger children to enjoy themed colouring and creativity.
🎨 Craft activities are available throughout the day and are perfect for dipping in and out of at your own pace.
💖 Pocket Hug Workshop (Drop-In)

• Baby-changing facilities
• A café for snacks and refreshments
• Lift access for pushchairs

👶 Visiting With Little Legs?
Don’t fancy a big walk with little ones? We understand that the journey through the National Trust garden can feel daunting (even with snacks, pit stops, and a bit of bribery!).
If you pre-book your admission tickets, you can arrange parking close to the House via a separate entrance to Stowe—ta-da, happy faces all round.
Alternatively, make a full day of it and enjoy the fresh air, letting the kids run off some steam with a big family adventure at Stowe.
