Wednesday 19th June  ‘Poisoned Beds’  at Brook Hall (old Baptist Church).  Written jointly by Chichester-based Greg Mosse, and Havant’s Lucy Flannery their play features original live music by another celebrated Havant resident – John Gleadhall.  Through West Sussex actress Paula Tinker the play is set in December 1918 and is a captivating story of one woman’s preparation of a concert to celebrate both women’s suffrage, and the end of the Great War.  However there’s a twist in this clever combination of comedy and sadness in that she can’t celebrate the future without reconciling herself to her tragic past – it’s not just the Oyster beds that human folly has poisoned ! The sixty-minute production is followed by a revealing post-show discussion and takes place on  at 7.30pm.  Tickets are £12.50 available from Bookends, and www.wegottickets.com

Saturday 30th November Hampshire Recorder Sinfonia : Concert at Emsworth Baptist Church on at 7pm.  At the invitation of Emsworth Baptist Church, Hampshire Recorder Sinfonia is delighted to be offering music enthusiasts a programme of “Classics and Moderns”. Included are Benjamin Britten’s courtly Dances from his opera “Gloriana” written to celebrate the coronation of The Queen in 1953. The modern pieces include “The Brington Crystal”, inspired by the tragic early death of Margaret, great-grandmother of Princess Diana and wife of the 6th Earl Spencer. For jazz standard lovers there’s a swinging arrangement of “Sweet Georgia Brown” and another of Philip Buttall’s tantalising compilation of at least 37 different well-known tunes in “The Lone Ar-ranger”. Count them if you can! The concert ends with a tuneful symphony written specially for a recorder orchestra by Marg Hall, a Scottish composer very popular with recorder players.  Tickets for the concert are available on the door or from 01329 834297. Adults £12, concessions £10, students £5 and children under 12 free.
