A trail of clues awaits in

Lichfield

The town of Lichfield is buzzing with excitement after the discovery of a long-lost diary belonging to the legendary Shakespearean actor, David Garrick. In it, he reveals a shocking secret-The Bard wrote alternative plots for many of his famous plays, hidden away as insurance against political and religious turmoil. But now, the manuscripts are missing, and it's up to YOU to track them down!

Treasure Hunt Through Lichfield

Join the Exploration Society on an immersive literary adventure through Lichfield, starting and ending at the Garrick Theatre. As you follow the Trail's clues, you'll explore the town's historic heart, uncover hidden gems, and solve puzzles to reveal the location of the buried treasure.

But be warned-this is no ordinary treasure hunt. With Garrick as your guide, you'll discover the town's hidden history and the truth behind Shakespeare's plays. Are YOU ready to embark on this thrilling quest for literary gold?
