Darlington Hippodrome
In this section children will explore the Hippodrome, beginning with its history, special architectural design, interior layout and features, and its stunning decorative details.
Practical activities ask children to design their own theatre façade and proscenium arch, then to create a name and a logo for their ‘new’ theatre.
At the end, children are given a mathematical challenge using pre-decimal coinage based on early twentieth-century ticket prices.
