Wednesday 29 February (Afternoon Performance) "TRAVELLING LIGHT" – by Nicholas Wright
National Theatre (Lyttelton), South Bank, London.

Cast includes the award-winning actor Antony Sher.

In a remote village in Eastern Europe, around 1900, a young man is entranced by the flickering silent images on his father’s cinematograph. Forty years on, and now a famed American film director, he looks back on his early life and confronts the cost of fulfilling his dreams. Nicholas Wright’s new play is a funny and fascinating tribute to the Eastern European immigrants who became major players in Hollywood’s golden age.

Cost £35 (£36 Non-LALG), which includes coach and top price seat. (Normal price of top price seat alone is £45).

Coach leaves Letchworth Station Bus Stop, opposite Barclays Bank at 12.00 noon.

 

Friday 9 March (Afternoon Performance) - "NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH" by Alan Ayckbourn
Watford Palace Theatre, Watford.

Things are not right on The Bluebell Hill Development - petty crime is increasing! Newcomers Martin and his sister Hilda are the crimewave’s latest victims and resolve to take action. But what starts out as a well intentioned neighbourhood watch scheme, soon develops into something altogether more sinister.

Alan Ayckbourn’s hilarious cautionary tale of the dangers of taking the law into your own hands is his seventy-fifth play.

This critically acclaimed production comes to Watford direct from a New York run.

Cost £20 (£21 Non-LALG), which includes coach and good seat.

Coach leaves Letchworth Station Bus Stop, opposite Barclays Bank at 1.00pm.

This event is organized by Kate Thompson.
