Richard Hannay leads a boring life. So boring, in fact, that he resorts to a trip to the theatre! An event which turns his world upside down as he becomes embroiled in the world of subterfuge, spies, the Scottish Highlands and…National Security.

Hannay’s conscience (and dashing good looks) compels him to head north - far north to the Scottish wilderness where he dodges evil villains and corrupt officials with equal aplomb and huge slices of luck, counting a flock of sheep among his rescuers.

Will he succeed in protecting national security, find romance and live happily ever after, or be locked up forever and face a life of ignominy as a murderer?

To find out, we must climb…the 39 Steps!

'Carving Out' Abstract - Flowers with Negative Painting

Wednesday 23 July - 10:30am to 4:30pm

Beginners & Improvers

£67.00

This is a new technique for painting an abstract background, 'discovering' flowers within it then over painting a background. This allows us to paint 'negatively' and carve these flowers into more stylish shapes, adding a vase to complete the composition.

Negative painting allows 'a second go' at refining a shape and often creates a different sort of edge and look. This is a fun style to try and may entice you off the beaten track of your current style. Beware!

Please book as early as possible to help us plan for you. Please refer to the materials list here in good time to prepare.

Or complete beginners can purchase/borrow a basic kit for £5.00 cash on the day. Please book the kit at least 2 days before with the box office.

The Odyssey, presented by Troubadour Stageworks:

A musical adaptation to be enjoyed by all the family.

Penelope has ruled Ithaca for 20 years. The evening before she must choose a new husband a stranger arrives at the palace. He says he has news of Odysseus.

If her husband is not dead then where has he been, why does he now return and what remains of their relationship?

It would take divine intervention for this reunion to go well … luckily, the Goddess Athena is patron to them both.

Returning after its successful 2023 tour, our adaptation is full of monsters and gods, interweaving music and modern dialogue with Alexander Pope's poetical translation of this Ancient Greek epic.

Classic yet accessible, this musical adaptation touches on many of the universal themes, in particular loss, identity, like-mindedness and homecoming. This is an introduction to this epic tale designed to be enjoyed by all the family and, we hope, spark a curiosity in the original!

Tickets: £18.00

Agathe, hopelessly clumsy yet charming, and full of contradictions, dreams of experiencing love akin to a Jane Austen novel. Instead she finds herself stuck in desperate singlehood, spending her days working in the legendary British bookshop, Shakespeare & Co in Paris, rather than pursuing her own ambitions of becoming a novelist. But when an unexpected invitation to the Jane Austen Writers' Residency in England lands in her lap, Agathe is in for an eye-opening and life-changing experience.

Encouraged to confront her insecurities and explore her true romantic, sexual and creative nature, in part thanks to her eccentric co-residents, Agathe realises it’s time to stop wasting her sentimental life and take control - over both her writing aspirations, and her very own love story.

Starring Camille Rutherford (Anatomy of a Fall), Pablo Pauly (The French Dispatch) and Charlie Anson (Death on the Nile), Jane Austen Wrecked My Life is an uplifting and heart-warming throwback to classic romance, with a modern sensibility, marking the directorial

debut of acclaimed screenwriter Laura Piani.

Blending the charm of a British countryside adventure with the emotional pull of a second-chance romance, Jane Austen Wrecked My Life is a fresh, funny, and poignant film for every modern romantic who’s ever believed that Austen’s world might just hold the answers to our own.

Please note this film has some dialogue in French with English subtitles

What is Creative Writing for wellbeing?

Writing for wellbeing, helps to develop self-expression and make space for reflection. Putting thoughts on paper can make it easier to reflect on them and can lead us to rediscover forgotten memories and skills, and find new perspectives on our situation.

For some people reflective writing can become a regular or even daily exercise through keeping a diary or journal, but even one-off exercises can help us to reconnect with ourselves and begin to find ways to connect with others.

No prior writing skill or experience is necessary, and there is no requirement to write in a specific language, style or form. This is not writing for publication. Rather making space to write for yourself, focusing on process and content rather than spelling or gramma. There is no expectation that you share it with anyone unless you would like to.  All you really require is something to write with, something to write on and a little time.

About Andrea - Andrea has spent many years working in Health and Social Care settings and has combined her professional background with a personal love of story- telling, writing and books.  

Now, a Freelance Consultant, Registered Nurse, Qualified Manager, Teacher and Coach, supporting Change, Improvement, Learning and Development.  Andrea is specialising in Creative Writing to support Well- Being. creating and sharing a programme of short courses/workshops for Creative Writing for Wellbeing.

This top tribute show is more than just a tribute - they are the completepackage! With their perfect combination of brilliant musicianship and tongue in cheek humour, they have had rave reviews throughout the UK.

Playing the country-rock songs of the 1980s supergroup ‘The Traveling Wilburys’, the band also steal some choice numbers from the back catalogue of each of its five iconic members; Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, George Harrison, Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynne.

Born out of the ashes of the popular B eatles tribute band Sgt Pepper’sOnly Dart Board Band, the fabulous UNRAVELLING WILBURYS are madeup of Sticky Willy, Walter, T humper, Blind Melon and Honky TonkWilbury, the “real” Wilbury brothers, who present their own unique slant on what it means to be a trib ute band. The show tells the story of the fateful night in Nashville’s Tootsies Bar in 1987, when their songs were(allegedly) stolen by Messrs Orbison & Co. and the hard road they had to tread to get ‘em back.

Songs such as ‘End of the Line’, ‘Handle with Care’, ‘The Devil’s Been

Busy’, and ‘Tweeter and The Monkey Man’ form the basis of the set,

which also features additional choice cuts including ‘Pretty Woman’

(Orbison), ‘Mr Blue Sky’ (Lynne), ‘American Girl’ (Petty), ‘While My GuitarGently Weeps’ (Harrison), and ‘A Hard Rain’s Gonna Fall’ (Dylan).

With music for everyone to enjoy, this is an evening not to be missed. A  fabulous night out for lovers of great music.

“Captured the style and sounds perfectly and with their own added

sense of humour gave the audience an evening to remember”.

Following triumphant Met turns in Roméo et Juliette, La Traviata, and Lucia di Lammermoor, Nadine Sierra summits another peak of the soprano repertoire as Amina, who sleepwalks her way into audiences’ hearts in Bellini’s poignant tale of love lost and found.

Peter Knight and John Spiers have made long lasting and significant contributions to the English folk scene via their work with Steeleye Span and Bellowhead, and more recently with the Gigspanner Big Band, and each has changed the perception of what traditional music can be, simultaneously introducing it to much wider, including global, audiences.

Originally brought together by FolkEast Festival for a one-off concert in 2016, their partnership has blossomed into  “One of the most intriguing and exciting collaborations on today's folk scene” KLOF Magazine.

The pairing of violin and melodeon is not a new one, but in the hands of Knight and Spiers, improvisation and invention meet the listener at every turn. Together they have created a something to inspire future generations of musicians to engage with Britain’s folk dancing heritage, and the beautiful, mysterious tunes that can be found within that heritage.

"There can be no doubting that both performers are amongst the most, if not the most, talented of their peers. I was probably not the only person to leave the venue in awe at having witnessed something very special” Fatea Magazine
