Frozen Light presents: Night Out in Nature

Night Out in Nature is an outdoor sensory installation performance for audiences with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD).

  • Booking essential

Frozen Light brings 'Night Out in Nature' to Hardwick Hall.

Four scientists have lived inside a biodome for over a decade nurturing the Blostma, a plant so powerful it only flowers every 12 years. The Blostma might be what we've all been waiting for, but only if it blossoms under the full moon tonight!

You're invited to enter the biodome and experience this cosmic, floral event. The question is, after 12 years of waiting, will the Blostma reveal its blooms?

This event is wheelchair accessible and limited to 6 individuals with PMLD and their carers per show.

To prepare for the show, you can access the visual story PDF and video through the links on the website. Or copy and paste the below links into your browser.
