Dick and Angel Dare to Do It!

Dick & Angel Strawbridge, the stars of the hit television series, Escape To The Chateau, are heading to the US and Canada with their hugely successful Dare to Do It tour. 

In 2014 Dick & Angel embarked on an adventure of a life-time with their two children Arthur (1) & Dorothy, (0) and Angel’s parents Jenni & Steve. The dream was to find their Forever-home, that could double as a business and sustain their multi-generational family. After years of searching, they found Chateau de la Motte Husson, a run-down fairy-tale castle located in the stunning Pays da la Loire, France. It had no water, electric or heating and came with a 300-page survey of why not to buy it! It was the start of an incredible journey that no-one could predict. 

Millions of viewers across the world have been enthralled over the past few years by the family’s adventures. However, retired Lieutenant Colonel, engineer and chef Dick and his entrepreneur and designer wife Angel still have many untold tales to tell.   

Hot on the heels of sold-out tours in the UK and Australia/New Zealand, expect fascinating insights into what inspired the husband-and-wife team, who fell in love in 2010, to bring their fairy-tale castle back to life and turn it into the flourishing and continually evolving business it is today.  

They may be an ‘odd couple’, but the charismatic pair have a love story to share.  

During this highly entertaining evening, the duo explains who they are, where they have come from, how they met, and why they dared to do it! With stories to tell, games to play and laughs to share, join Dick & Angel for a truly unmissable night at the theatre.  


“We are so excited for our family adventure to the US and Canada. It’s such an honour for us to finally meet fans of Escape To The Chateau across the pond, and we can’t wait to give our audience a deeper insight into our lives and who we are. We’re looking forward to having lots of fun on our exciting whistle-stop tour!”  Dick & Angel
