Have you ever looked at your dearly beloved and thought, ‘I wish I could say what I’m thinking.’
Frome Festival 2019 marks the debut of a dramatic comedy by local writer, Nikki Lloyd, aiming to prove that relationships come in all shapes, sizes and intensity. Including a scene where, completely confidentially, the audience has the chance to say that thing they’ve always wanted to but never dared, via the characters. So would you dare…
‘Turtle Doves’ is a feelgood comedy-drama in which couples delve, sometimes unwillingly, into their closest relationship to discover if love really is the glue that binds us together, unearthing some personal demons along the way.
Directed by Keely Beresford, it’s the debut of new Frome-based company, Charming Lark, brought to the stage by Geoff Hunt Theatre Productions and runs from 8th-13th July at Frome Town Hall. Tickets are from the Cheese and Grain box office, and there are ticket deals available.
![Town-wide programme brings month of social activities in May
A month-long programme of activities and events is set to take place across the town in May as part of an initiative encouraging residents to connect with themselves, each other and local places.
The scheme, Frome Connects, will run throughout the month and includes a mix of social activities, creative events and informal meet-ups in community spaces.
Highlights include the return of Dress Up Fridays, which began during lockdown and invites people to wear formal clothing or fancy dress and turn the town into their catwalk each Friday.
Set-piece moments include a Kate Bush-themed flashmob (Running Up That [Catherine] Hill) on 30th May, followed by a bell peal at St John’s Church where the bells will play Running Up That Hill.
There will also be a whole-town drone photo on Friday 30th May, with everyone encouraged to ‘look up’ at around 12.30pm.
