'Sometimes You Have to Be a Little Bit Naughty if You Want to Change Your Story!'

 

The streets of Dartmouth will be filled by the smell of rebellion when DARTMOUTH THEATRE COMPANY presents Roald Dahl’s 'Matilda The Musical Jr.' Telling the story of an extraordinary girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to take a stand and change her own destiny. With music and lyrics written by Tim Minchin, this heart warming show is based on Roald Dahl's Tony-award winning hit musical, Matilda!

 

Dartmouth Theatre Company is a non-profit community group launched in April 2024. This production will be performed by the youth group, which is made up of children between the ages of 5 & 16, who live in Dartmouth and the surrounding area.

The children are very excited to be performing their first ever production here at The Flavel!

2024 marks the 80th anniversary of D Day and, following the extracts shown at the Exercise Tiger weekend, we are offering another chance to watch Ian Phillip’s compelling film ‘Evacuation’ in full.

It tells the story of the around 3000 residents of Slapton & the surrounding villages who had to evacuate their homes for the American troops involved in Exercise Tiger, the ill-fated Allied rehearsal for the D-Day landings. The film contains fascinating footage of archive film and interviews with people who were children at the time. They had to evacuate their homes with six weeks’ notice, leaving before Christmas and taking all their possessions and livestock with them

A complimentary glass of wine will be served after the screening with the opportunity to speak to others about the film and its significance.

Friday 22 November, 5.30pm

Tickets £14 (to include a complimentary glass of wine or soft drink after the screening)

Girl From The North Country

Written and directed by celebrated playwright Conor McPherson and featuring Tony Award-winning orchestrations by Simon Hale, Girl From The North Country reimagines 20 legendary songs of Bob Dylan as they’ve never been heard before, including “Forever

Young,” “All Along The Watchtower,” “Hurricane,” and “Like A Rolling Stone.”

It’s 1934 in Duluth, Minnesota. We meet a group of wayward travellers whose lives intersect in a guesthouse filled with music, life and hope. Experience this “profoundly beautiful” Broadway production (The New York Times) brought to vivid life by an extraordinary company of actors and musicians.

Let Us Take You to Paris
