Night Must Fall
Cheltenham Everyman, 2.00pm
(Depart from Nailsworth at 12.30pm)

£35 – Book and pay by 6th October 2016

It’s frightening to think what a face can hide…

When charming, smooth-talking Dan arrives unexpectedly at old Mrs Bramson’s remote woodland home he soon ingratiates his way into her life and that of her beautiful niece Olivia. But when a local woman goes missing and rumours in the press of a murder surface among the household, fingers begin to point. Has the past finally caught up with Dan and could he really be capable of murder? As the police close in, and with the press baying for blood, is anyone safe?

This psychological thriller from master playwright Emlyn Williams has all the tension, atmosphere and suspicion of the best British mysteries and will leave you on the edge of your seat.

A star cast includes Gwen Taylor (Barbara, Coronation Street and Heartbeat), Daragh O’Malley (Sharpe), Niamh McGrady (Holby City & The Fall) and Will Featherstone (Romeo and Juliet for Shakespeare’s Globe, The History Boys for Sheffield Crucible and Channel 4’s Fresh Meat)

12 members drove to The Daneway Inn for a 7 mile ramble, led by Mary Saunders. The route took in the village of Edgeworth with it’s church and Manor House. Mary told us about the ‘Unwrapping of an Egyptian Mummy’ at Edgeworth Manor House in 1851. An interesting tale!
