Chester Designed by Nature: Spring Blooms - Spring on Stage

Spring on Stage doubles as a performance space where the stage itself is also a piece of art inspired by the vivid colours and patterns of spring insects. Enjoy the amazing colours in nature and the scale of bugs within this immersive and bold stage structure.
