What you can expect

Join Show of Strength, one of Bristol’s leading theatre companies, for a unique guided theatre walk exploring the life of Cary Grant — born Archie Leach.

Starting in central Bristol, this immersive experience takes you through the streets, venues, and landmarks that defined his early years. From the theatres where he worked to the places he socialised, ate, and found escape, see the city through the lens of a young man determined to leave it behind.

But this is also the storey of return. Through vivid storytelling and performance, uncover the personal history behind the Hollywood image — including the family secrets, losses, and relationships that shaped his life, and the emotional journey that brought him back to Bristol later in life.

Led by experienced performer-guides, this is a deeply engaging and entertaining experience that combines local history with theatrical storytelling — offering a fresh perspective on both the city and one of its most famous sons.
