7.30pm: 6-9th June: Octopus Presents "Off the Hook"
Christ The King Church, Thornbury

Wednesday 6th to Saturday 9th June at Christ the King Church Hall, Castle Street, Thornbury

For this year's play, Octopus have returned to the format with which they first started performing plays - a farce. "Off the Hook" is written by Derek Benfield, the well known author and actor. The play revolves around a trio of petty criminals who arrive at a country hotel hoping to collect some illicit funds previously hidden there.

However, the amorous attention that one of our wrong-doers receives from the wife of the hotel owner, added to the arrival of the girlfriend of another "criminal" who is also looking for the "loot", contrives to make for a number of hilarious situations leading up to an unexpected ending.

The action takes place in Christ the King Church Hall in Castle Street at 7.30 pm on Wednesday 5th to Saturday 9th June. Tickets priced at £6 with concessions at £5, are available from R A Bennett, the Estate Agents on The Plain or by phoning 413873 or reserving them... Read more >>

10am: Thornbury Methodist Church Rainbow Fair
Thornbury Methodist Church

The Methodist Church in Thornbury always has plenty of rainbows and colour at its annual Rainbow Fair 10am to 12.30pm in both the halls (lift access to upper hall).

This is the church's only annual fund raising event and the proceeds are divided equally between church funds and the Matthew Rusike Home in Zimbabwe. It is, therefore, an event which supports the church locally and overseas.

There will be lots of wonderful bargains – from home made cakes, jams, chutneys and handmade goods to bargain toiletries and books galore. Toasted teacakes, tea, coffee and home-made cakes will be served all morning in the Rainbow Café on the ground floor.

So, why not come along – there will be something for everyone, including early Christmas gifts.

Lots of free parking in the car park at the rear of the church! Note the date in your diary and come early.
