Clearwater was a hit with the audience then and still entertained the crowds at Thornbury CMC this last April a very special post Easter treat.

Did you see triple Oscar Winner for Best Actor, Daniel Day Lewis, in a Bristol Old Vic Theatre School production? His talent was so intense it was almost frightening; a sure-fire star in the making!

Come along and appreciate the cream of the country's young actors in this new production of Moonfleet, J. Meade Falkners's classic tale of smugglers, shipwrecks, hidden treasure, vengeance and enduring love, on stage in Thornbury as part of an extensive tour.

This is advance notice of a terrific ensemble production which is part of the fund raising for the Armstrong Hall Backstage Improvement Appeal.
