The Accidental Revolutionist

Agency of Coney, Battersea Arts Centre

Ongoing from late 2019 - accessible to school groups year-round

 One small action is where it starts. It can be something seemingly insignificant that can go on to change the world. Some of the biggest revolutions have started with the smallest of actions: an accident.

The Gatekeeper is on the lookout for new recruits for a secret international society of revolutionaries founded in Wandsworth, The Despard Club. Will your school have what it takes?

Work together as a team to take on this interactive mission for schools, throughout the halls of Battersea Arts Centre, to unlock the history of the revolutionary Charlotte Despard and her notorious Despard Club.

When
The Accidental Revolutionist is available now for school groups to play.

Bookings can be made for Wednesdays or Fridays, 10:30am or 1:30pm, and the adventure lasts around 90 minutes.
