What happened next became the stuff of legend. Only 50 years later did the full story emerge.  Also starrring Helen Mirren, Heather Craney, James Wilby and Fionn Whitehead.

Black Box Theatre Company return to the Village Hall on Friday 8th July 2022 with their tour of John Godbers hillarious play 'Bouncers' after the hugely successful Abigail's Party Tour in 2021.  

Set in 1984, John Godber’s classic comic drama, Bouncers, tells the story of a typical northern nightclub and the colourful characters that inhabit its dancefloor.   It’s Friday night and the weekend’s here… so, put on your dancing shoes… it’s going to be a night to remember!

Maureen and the girls are having their hair done. Barry and the lads are ‘down the pub’ getting a few drinks in. And Ralph, Les, Judd and Lucky Eric are manning the doors at the town’s hottest nightspot… Mr Cinders.

Full of sharp one-liners, 80s classics and a host of extraordinary characters, all played by just four amazing actors, Bouncers is John Godber’s tour de force. Hysterically funny with a touch of pathos and a whole load of nostalgia, this comic drama takes an irreverent look at the ups and downs of urban nightlife through the eyes of its eponymous ‘heroes.’

Hen Nights and Stag Dos and plenty of booze! Punks and DJs, Hooray Henries and hairdressers – they’re all here, for a night to remember.

You’ll laugh… You’ll cry… You’ll be dancing in the aisles! So join us and celebrate good times… COME ON!

It's 1943. The Allies are determined to break Hitler's grip on occupied Europe, and plan an all-out assault on Sicily; but they face an impossible challenge -- how to protect a massive invasion force from potential massacre. It falls to two remarkable intelligence officers, Ewen Montagu (Colin Firth) and Charles Cholmondeley (Matthew Macfadyen) to dream the most inspired and improbable disinformation strategy of the war -- centered on the most unlikely of secret agents: a dead man. Operation Mincemeat is the extraordinary and true story of an idea that hoped to alter the course of the war -- defying logic, risking countless thousands of lives, and testing the nerves of its creators to breaking point.
