1. Saturday Signing

Come and meet poet Frank McMahon, who will be signing copies of his book, The Light Will Always Return at Kenilworth Books on Saturday 5 October.

This is Frank’s third poertry collection. His previous books, At the Storm’s Edge and A Different Land were published by Palewell Press.

He has won prizes for his work and read at The Cheltenham Literary and Poetry Festivals in 2023.

Last year, he worked with two schools on the national Poetry Together initiative and this year worked as a volunteer for Cheltenham Poetry Festival.

2. London Assurance

The Talisman Theatre and Arts Centre is "excited to present" Dion Boucicault's timeless comedy, 'London Assurance' – a hilarious exploration of mistaken identities, romantic chaos, and biting social satire, set against the backdrop of 19th-century London society.

Though written in 1841, the play's wit and charm remain as engaging today as ever in this revised version by Richard Bean. 

First performed in 1841 when Boucicault was just 21, 'London Assurance' went on to solidify his place as a giant of 19th-century theatre. Don't miss this chance to see why his work has endured for generations! 

'London Assurance' runs from Monday, 30 September to Saturday, 5 October at the Talisman Theatre.
