Kynren is an outdoor production which tells a 2000 year history of England. In 90 minutes you are taken on an epic journey through time. Kynren is not like your average outdoor theatre trip – everything about this experience is extraordinary. From the staging, special effects, casting and music. Kynren’s evening blockbuster performances are ranked 5* in Trip Advisor.
Myth and legend rush by in 90 minutes as we join young Arthur on his epic quest. Rebellions, wars, magic, majesty, celebration and heartache are vividly brought to ground-shaking life in a dazzling outdoor-theatre spectacular.
From Boudicca’s battles with the Romans to two world wars, via Vikings, Tudors and the fate of Charles I, Kynren’s a spellbinding, family-friendly experience delivering thrills, shocks, tears, laughs, goosebumps and gasps on a truly cinematic scale.
29 dramatic scenes as Kynren takes audiences on a thrilling, action-packed and emotional journey through time. Each scene is brought to unforgettable life and enhanced by an original soundtrack by the award-winning composer Nathan Stornetta. The dialogue itself features the distinctive tones of Kevin Whately, best known for his roles in Auf Wiedersehen Pet, Inspector Morse and Lewis. Kevin’s voice plays the part of Old Arthur, the character who reveals the secret of time travel to Young Arthur, setting him off on his quest for knowledge; ‘Kynren’ echoes the Anglo Saxon word ‘cynren’, meaning generation, kin or family, and is a fitting name for Arthur’s epic discovery of his roots.
