7:30 pm

serpent & appleA comedy farce by David Tristram. Directed By Rod Goddard.

Original sin? It seems there is nothing original any more. But maybe Eve and Neville and Jenny and Jeremy would take a different position. Perhaps lifelong celibate Father Tomalin can find a new angle? Why not ask his daughter? And why are Bill’s underpants on Miles’ lampshade? Why not come along and find out?

One Big Blow – Romiley Little Theatre

Saturday 30th June, 2012
7:30 pm

onebigblow

The boys are back in the pit!  By popular request Romiley Little Theatre return to the Partington Theatre to present ‘One Big Blow’ currently touring to sell-out audiences throughout the UK.

This is a unique production in terms of staging, the snapshot of social history it provides and the roots of the play itself. Written nearly a quarter of a century ago, it is primarily a comic drama which still retains relevance and surprised me with its humour, or more specifically the amount of surreal tongue-in-cheek wit.Highly recommended‘ – Buxton Fringe review.

One night only – don’t miss it!

Tickets cost £8 (£6 concessions) and are available from the bar or from Les Hewitt on 07736152348.
