The Theatre of Widdershins on tour - not to be missed!

Happy June everyone! This month we will be touring 'The Day it Rained Chocolate Buttons'! First chance to see this will be Milton Keynes Libraries on Saturday 13th June at 2pm; then The Bigg Theatre on the 20th June and Stapleford Granary Arts Centre - Cambridgeshire on the 21st June! These three venues have given us such a fantastic loyal audience and I hope that we will see lots of you at one of these shows before we have a 3 month break from the Gripping Yarns in order to prepare for the Edfringe!

Dojn'y miss this one, it will be a cracker!

Listen up y'all. This Friday, you can treat yourself to a night of superb country music, played by some of the best local live musicians.

Who are they? The band that brought you the Beertles has found a cowgirl - Luce - to join them in a night of harmonies and heartache.

What're they playin'? Country standards (you just know that you'll know 'em) will be rubbing rhinestone-encrusted shoulders with lesser known gems. A lotta toe-tapping, and a l'il bit of tear-jerking.

⏰ 7pm for a 7.30pm start

🗓️ Friday 5 June

📍 Letchworth Settlement, 229 Nevells Road, Letchworth, SG6 4UB
