Calling all families and observant young people in Gillingham, Stalbridge and Lytchett Matravers – the Super-Spies are heading to your community, and they need your help!


Marvellous leader Mirabel Merryweather, newly initiated Claude Pringle, and all the Super-Spies are under lockdown like everyone else. Unfortunately, they’ve had worrying reports that agents from The Vortex, their rival spy gang, are active and have started luring new spies to the dark side from your towns.

Now the Super-Spies need a team of young sleuths to brush up on their espionage skills and help solve some vital clues in the fight to stamp out The Vortex. Devised by Dorset-based Angel Exit Theatre, Super- Spies In Lockdown is an interactive performance game that plays out across two short sessions on a private, secure Zoom chat, with each community having their very own Zoom.

Tamsin Fessey, co-artistic director of Angel Exit said: “We are delighted to offer family audiences in three Dorset communities an exclusive theatrical experience, which we hope will start online with our Zoom meeting but expand into a clue trail around the town or village and a series of fun, madcap spy activities around the home.”

Presented by Artsreach, this experience is aimed at families with children aged between five and 11 in Gillingham, Stalbridge and Lytchett Matravers. Each community will have their very own session with the super spies, but capacity is strictly limited to 25 households.

The first spy meeting takes place online on Sunday, April 11. Super-Spies meet together on April 18, with Gillingham families meeting at 10:30am, families in Lytchett Matravers at 12pm and Stalbridge families at 2pm.
