Plough News

As the season for BBQ's and cold tinnies arrives, spare a thought for our poor film projectionists sweating in the projection box while you sit in air conditioned delight. Did you know that two of our regular projectionists are volunteers? I'd like to raise a public cheer to Paul Bangay & Michael Taverner who give unstintingly of their time and expertise to help make our ends meet. Look at the diary pages here in The Crier for details of our 8 films.
If you have a pre-school child, why not fill a happy morning or afternoon on 1 July with a visit to The Tin Forest, a delightful piece of puppetry with no words, only a soundscape and live music.
Picnic rugs will be the order of the day at 1646 gardens on Wednesday 29 when Illyria theatre present Shakespeare's magical romp A Midsummer Night's Dream. A once-only offer is yours for the asking on Friday 24 when the strangely attractive (?) talents of Fannying Around grace The Plough stage (grace may have nothing to do with it - but you have to be kind; they don't get out much). You'll know most of them - look at the poster in the butchers- but you'd not believe that they're that clever. All profits to North Devon Women's Refuge and The Plough.
Checky shirts and fringed skirts in abundance when the Plough Youth Theatre meets Oooooklahoma! from 15-18 July (last 2 shows sold out - you've been warned).
Finally we hope you haven't thrown away our insert about Torrington Music & Arts Day on Saturday 4 July (well get over to that waste paper basket and take it out!). From 10am 'til late we've lots of lovely treats around Torrington for you, ending with a fund-raising family ceilidh for North Devon Hospice and The Plough. Get baking now for the hospice cake stall!
