Joy Winkler’s innovative verse/drama TOWN is the moving tale of Rosie’s quest to find her birth mother, helped by a stranger and the magic of a town’s annual Festival. Dragons on bicycles, devils playing guitars and ‘a bit of magic after all these years’ are only part of the glittering backdrop to a story which will warm your heart. Live accompaniment composed and performed by Andrew Rudd. Former Cheshire Poets Laureate, Joy and Andrew also toured with ‘Bunch of Fives’ and ‘Fourpenny Circus’. Film backdrop produced by Ian Coppack features additional artwork by Cheshire artists Carl Longmate and Karen Rossart. Director: Kevin Dyer. Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.  Tickets £6/£5, call 01625 612527 or 07710 409080.
