DETV : Live Paranormal Investigation from Kings Theatre

Date: Wednesday 22 September, 2021

Time: 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM

Location: Kings Theatre, Portsmouth

Ticket Price: £FREE

You may wonder what happens to historic venues after dark, when the last audience member has left, the rope barriers are up, and the staff have locked all the doors? Up and down the country, staff report unexplained phenomena that occur just as a location is closed for the night!

To explore this, we offer you the opportunity of observing just what does happen, "Live After Dark" at the majestic Kings Theatre Southsea, Hampshire. With sightings of previous theatre owners sitting in the impressive Frank Matcham auditorium, or tales of ghostly figures disappearing on the stairs, is it any wonder that the theatre is considered haunted? During the LIVE show we will explore the history, myths and legends of the various paranormal activity reported for generations, by people who have worked, attended and performed at the theatre.

Every month we aim to bring you a live investigation from one of the Haunted Heritage locations we are lucky enough to have in this area. Throughout the investigation you have the opportunity of feeding back anything you may see and advise us where we should investigate next. Comment on the feed and let us know what you want us to do - screen shot anything you think we should explore further. And remember to share to your friends. The lights are off, the theatre is empty, and we are going Live After Dark!
