CTGA Colchester History Alive! (CHA!)

Colchester Tourist Guides Association

History Matters!

but for many of us it can be very dry and uninteresting so, we run a costumed show called Colchester History Alive! which illustrates in a light-hearted but historically accurate way Colchester’s long history.

Various scenes are available from Roman times through to the Second World War - and we are developing more.

We have already performed in the Castle Park, Abberton Manor, the Five Parishes Show, Copford Agricultural Show, various local WI and others.

We can adapt our entertaining show to suit fetes, association meetings, schools, corporate events, dinners, clubs etc.
