Beer Street, a show about, well, beer (and brewing), will appropriately be performed at the Wharf Inn in Fenny Compton on Sunday July 24 and at Rowington village hall on Tuesday August 2.

And Hell and High Water, which tells the story of the building of the Bridgewater Canal and is accompanied by live music, will arrive at The Boat in Birdingbury Wharf on Monday July 25 and at the Waterman pub in Hatton on Wednesday July 27. All performances begin at 7.30pm.
