Here are our top picks for the coming days:

1. The Girl on the Train

Make sure you stop off at the Talisman Theatre to catch the stage adaptation of 'The Girl on the Train' this April.

Based on the global best-selling novel, written by Paula Hawkins, which then went on to hit the box office with the DreamWorks film in 2016, this gripping psychological thriller has also been adapted for the stage by Paula Wagstaff and Duncan Abel.

'The Girl on the Train' tells the story of a woman called Rachel Watson (Katie-Anne Ray), a divorcee, still reeling after her break up, who finds solace imagining the lives of a couple she sees each day from a train window.

But when the woman she has been watching disappears, Rachel becomes entangled in a missing persons investigation that promises to send shockwaves through her life.

Now she has the chance to become involved in the lives of those that until now she has only been able to watch from afar.

Come along to the production of 'The Girl on the Train' at The Talisman Theatre, to find out if Rachel holds the key to finding the missing girl.

Directed by Sam Harris, the show runs from Monday 17 April to Saturday 22 April. Tickets can be booked online via the website or by calling the Box Office on 01926 856548.

2. Repair Café

It's that time of the month again for Repair Café at Abbey Hill United Reform Church on Sunday, April 16!

Organisers said: "Remember if you can carry it in or pedal it, we'll have a look at it.

"Our brilliant volunteers with skills in DIY repairs, electrical and electronics, toys, bicycles, simple sewing and jewellery, will be available to help you to fix your clean, portable items.

"Garden tool sharpening also available. We can't promise to mend everything but at least together we can have a go to keep stuff out of landfill.

"We don't charge so a small donation is greatly appreciated. Last repair is taken in at 4.30pm."
