The Twits

Sat 26 Sept | 7pm | £12 
By Roald Dahl | Adapted for the stage by David Wood 
Building Bridges Community Arts Theatre is delighted to present an imaginative and energetic production of ‘The Twits’, bringing Roald Dahl’s wonderfully mischievous world to life on stage. Packed with outrageous pranks, larger-than-life characters, and plenty of laughter, this family-friendly production follows the revolting Mr and Mrs Twit as their cruel games and terrible behaviour finally begin to catch up with them. Audiences can expect a fast-paced adventure filled with humour, surprises, and moments of heartwarming teamwork. 
This colourful theatrical experience captures the spirit of Dahl’s storytelling while giving the show a fresh and playful community theatre touch. With inventive staging, lively performances, and audience interaction throughout, this promises to be an entertaining experience for children and adults alike. 
This amateur production of THE TWITS is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French, Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk 

This event will take place in our studio theatre with an unreserved, tiered seating layout.

Tribute to John Mayall & His Bluesbreakers

Sat 19 Sept | 8pm | £16 

In 1966, John Mayall and his band, The Bluesbreakers, released their debut studio album which became known as ‘The Beano Album’. The album pioneered a guitar-dominated UK blues rock sound and helped launch the careers of the legendary guitarist Eric Clapton and others. The John Mayall Project celebrates the 60th anniversary of this iconic album and is delighted to bring this fabulous collection of songs to The Market Place Theatre together with a selection of other great British blues and blues rock songs from many of the great guitarists who shared the stage with Mayall over the years. 
This event will take place in our studio theatre with an unreserved, cabaret-style layout.
