FAMILIES are being invited to enjoy a whole host of half term events at Otley Courthouse.

Kicking things off on Wednesday October 27 the Courthouse welcomes DJ school UK.

A spokesperson said: "Get 'hands-on' with DJing at DJ School UK's introduction to DJ Skills. You will get to learn the basics and there will be one set of digital decks per pair so loads of time to really try it out and prep a mix. DJ School UK tutors have a huge library of music and skills so can help with pretty much whatever music you are into."

On Thursday, October 28 family favourites Tutti Frutti productions present The Princess and the Pea, written by Mike Kenny.

The spokesperson said: "Set in the Museum of Forgotten Things, three musical curators tell the amazing tale of the museum's artefacts including the mystery of a little green pea and how it got there. This one hour of fun is packed with humour and memorable songs, including a romp through every type of princess you can imagine, with hilarious costumes to match.

"The audience meet a demanding queen, an array of wannabe princesses, and our main characters, an unknown girl who is blown into the palace by a gust of wind, and an indecisive prince under pressure to find his real princess. Will he ever find a real princess or his happy ever after?"

On Friday, October 29 storyteller Vickie Orton returns with some spooky tales of mysterious goings on at Otley Courthouse.

The spokesperson said: "Are you brave enough to come and find out what really happened in Otley all those years ago. Plus come and make your own jam jar lanterns whilst listening to her spook tales."
