Turnpike Community Theatre
It is 25 years since Turnpike Community Theatre first performed in the Leigh area. Since then the group have supported and celebrated local history, and the work of local artists. This year is no exception with the commissioning of the script, ‘Marsh Fever!’ which has been written by local playwright Julie McKiernan.
The production celebrates the history of Westleigh in a light-hearted way and sees members of the Westleigh community from the 1930’s come back to life to experience life in 2009. The character of Miss Marsh is revived and the donation of the Marsh Fields to the people of Leigh is re-enacted by the cast.
The 25th Anniversary production of ‘Marsh Fever!’ will be performed at XII Apostles Club on 11th and 12th June at 7:30pm and 13th June at 7pm. The performances will involve a number of children from local schools. Tickets cost £4.50 and £4 (concessions). To order tickets please contact Gill on (01942) 603195.
