Wide is the Water : The Strange and, at times, Strained Relationship between the US and the UK.

Andrew Wines returns to the Christ’s Hospital Theatre for the fourth time with a multimedia, interactive, full-immersion extravaganza of history, politics, current affairs, literature, music and film.

On the 250th anniversary of American independence, explore how the ‘special’ relationship between the US and UK has reached a historic low.

Boston Harbor, the North and South Atlantic, the Suez Canal and the Strait of Hormuz provide the backdrop for confrontation and open warfare between the old country and its Yankee offspring that reveal shared and competing cultural identities.

George III, George Washington, Kipling, Edward VIII, Wallis Simpson, FDR, Winston Churchill, the BBC, the Beatles, 007, the CIA, the IRA, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, Jeffrey Epstein, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Prime Minister Starmer and President Trump signpost the pitfalls and potential inherent in the world’s strongest alliance.

(Minimum Age 14)

An evening to celebrate and bid farewell to some of our most talented Grecian musicians.

For the first time in forever, experience the musical phenomenon that has taken the world by storm! Based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature film, Disney’s Frozen includes all the film’s beloved songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, along with new music written exclusively for the stage production. In the beautiful mountainous kingdom of Arendelle, Princesses Anna and Elsa grow up sheltered inside their castle, isolated from the world and increasingly distant from each other. When Elsa is crowned queen, the magical powers she’s desperately tried to conceal from her sister take control, and she flees into the mountains. As a ferocious winter descends on Arendelle, Anna sets off on an epic journey to find Elsa and bring her home – with the help of hardworking ice harvester Kristoff, his loyal reindeer Sven, and a happy-go-lucky snowman named Olaf.

Full of magic, humour, and a stunning musical score, Frozen is a powerful tale of sisterhood, acceptance, and finding the real meaning of true love. Nearly 100 CH students from 2nd form to UF will be tackling this glorious production in June 2026 and we hope to see you there!

Please note: This is the full-length production, running time 2 hours 20 minutes (including interval). Due to show length and content it is only suitable for children aged 5 and above.
