Join us at Marble Hill for a new interactive smartphone adventure.
BAFTA-winning game-makers Coney have worked in partnership with English Heritage and young people local to Marble Hill to create a game that explores the colonial and globalised history of the site, Watching the House.
Step into the house, pick up a pair of headphones and see if you can unfurl the stories lost in the shadows…

As a guardian of the house, your role is to sit quietly. To observe. To remain invisible and protect the treasures of the past.
But as you sit, you hear a voice. You hear many voices, asking you to take notice. Things are not always as they seem…
Launching on the 23rd June through to September, the game will be available...Read More

Launching on the 23rd June through to September, the game will be available to play at Marble Hill.
It is free to take part, all you need is your phone and a pair of headphones, and it lasts approximately 30 minutes. Please visit the house to start the game.
Live performances take place on Sunday 23 June, Saturday 20 July and Saturday 10 August, 12-4pm. For more information about the live events, please click here.
About the project:
Watching the House is the result of a new collaboration between Coney and English Heritage's youth engagement programme, Shout Out Loud.
Our national youth engagement programme provides a platform for young people to explore heritage sites and collections across England, helping them to uncover untold stories from our past in new and exciting ways.
Over two creative weekends, a group of young people aged 16-18 worked with Coney artists, English Heritage historians and curators to explore the colonial history of Marble Hill, learn about game design and interactive theatre-making, and develop ideas for a new interactive smartphone game.
About Coney:
Coney is an acclaimed arts and social change charity on a mission to spark change through the power of play.
For over 15 years, Coney have been co-creating interactive experiences, ranging from bespoke games designed for individuals, to city-wide adventures for tens of thousands.
