Adventures of the original working-class hero and man in tights!

Robin Hood steals from the rich and gives to the poor in an oldie timey place where people are struggling and homeless and the landed gentry hoard the money all for themselves – Wellington 2025.

Robin must stop the Evil Sheriff from running roughshod over the citizens! But this quest is far from easy… there is archery, swordfights, and a lot of dance numbers to get through. Our hero is grateful for help from spies on the inside: Maid Marion, and her bolshie Nanny (Pantomime Dame Jthan Morgan).

Come one and come all to see the slings and arrows of outrageous panto!

Thought you were past your prime to become a rockstar? Don't sell yourself - or your health - short.

Research published this year has demonstrated that playing music helps keep dementia at bay - no matter how late in life the skill is picked up.

The basic idea behind this research is not new - we know that 'cognitive reserve' (learning new things) plays a big role in delaying mental slowdown. But the reminder that "it is never too late" is welcome ...

We hope this news brings a smile!
