Here’s what to expect! \nIn Time combines elements of an escape room\, a quest\, and immersive theatre. You and your group will work together with the actors\, exploring the historic estate as you solve clues and complete your assigned tasks. \nEach character you’ll encounter has a unique list of tasks related to the daily life and challenges of the Great Famine era. Carefully consider which characters you’ll want to help or hinder\, as each choice can impact your experience. \nCharacters and their stories unfold in real-time\, providing a dynamic and engaging experience. To fully immerse yourself\, spend as much time as possible with each character\, learning about their lives and the historical context they represent. \n“In Time” is a site-specific promenade show\, allowing you to walk around the grounds while solving tasks. You will have one hour to complete your chosen task list\, experiencing the estate as it was. \nFor further insights\, visit our online resources at Treasures of the Strokestown Famine Archive. \nEvent times: 10.30am\, 11am\, 1pm\, 3pm\, 4.30pm\, 5pm.\nLearn more about the theater company here \n**This is a predominantly outdoor event** \nBook your tickets here. \nMore events at Strokestown Park here

The show is presented in a fun-loving and good-humored way with audience participation welcomed and encouraged along the way. \nThis event is funded by Roscommon County Council under the Creative Ireland Programme\, in collaboration with the National Famine Museum\, Strokestown Park. \nMore events at Strokestown Park here
