Who'd have thought that arl Preccie was going to be home to that?

I know there was a story about Shakespeare being on the run in his youth in Lancashire as he is thought to have been a recusant, and hiding in 'Catholic Lancashire' was a wise thing to do for him and he was protected by certain aristocratic families in the county. No idea if that's true or not.

MacBreath? An asthmatic tragedy.

Magnificent to see some cultural investment in the UK somewhere other than London - which normally gets it all.

Are they putting on Blue Bill's Blood Brothers there?

 

[longers]

Could they not spend a few quid getting proper seats ? Going to the theatre is bad enough, having to also sit upright the entire time making it impossible to fall asleep is just evil.

Twelth Place - a cross dressingroom romp as we seek to improve on last season’s 16 th place.

Anthony & Calvertlewin - the dynamic duo seek to restore a club’s fortune.

Richarlison 11 - the fate of a club rests on the shoulders of a young pretender seeking to emulate his predecessor.

The Taming of the Shrewsbury - An epic away battle is fought to reach the 4th round of the FA cup.

That's superb. I love the old style, small theatres.

Spent a good few years living in Prescot and the turnaround of a town centre that was the epitome of dead that this generated is impressive.

Pitch of those stalls is nowhere steep enough, and it needs more boxes if it’s to compete with the leading theatres of the land.
