Experience "Life in a box"

An exciting new theatre piece comes to the centre this December.

Life in a box is set in a bed and breakfast in Wiltshire, providing a key hole into the everyday of the family who run the business and all the guests that arrive and depart throughout. Expect transformative decisions, telephone calls and an all-important conclusion – and LOTS of boxes.

The play is written and performed by a new theatre troop of young actors - Thee O' company. They were founded by Nia Powell, who studied at Reading’s Read Dance and Theatre College and has performed at the centre during her time there, hence why she sought us out. The troop are even rehearsing at the centre!

Life in a box will be performed on Sunday 18 December at 7pm. For more information and to buy tickets please see the Facebook event page
