Saturday 31st May - Travelling Theatre in aid of cancer research at Paulerspury village hall

In recent times, several folk who live in and around Paulerspury have fallen victim to one or another form of cancer. So, an event is planned at the Village Hall on Saturday 31st May, the profits from which will all go to Cancer Research.

"New Perspectives" are a travelling Theatre Company who have performed in the village in past years. The play that they will be presenting is "THE FARM", a rural story based on the book by Richard Benson.

Tickets are priced at £6 and £5 concessions and are available from Derek Batten, 16 High Street, 01327 811304.

The play starts at 8.00 pm but the doors open at seven o’clock for a pre-performance drink as there will be a licensed bar. A raffle will be held, so if you cannot make it, you can buy tickets in advance from Derek.
