2025 Events

13th February, 7.30 pm – Arts Reach Performance, “Last Dance Saloon”

Two people, no longer in the first flush of youth, find each other at a tango retreat in Buenos Aires. A spark is lit and their passion smoulders – this was meant to be. But one has work and family ties in South America, the other in North Devon. They settle into the frustrations of a long-distance relationship, fuelled by regular tango sessions in Argentina. Then one of them weighs up the ecological consequences… 

Last Dance Saloon is staged ‘in the round’ to replicate the atmosphere of a Tango milonga (social dance) and audiences are invited to stay for a social dance after the show, learning a few tango steps from the company.

Tickets £12.50 – bar open at 7 pm.  Contact Helen Baird 01300 341777 or Jayne Hanson 01300 341210 

7th March – Hall Talk – “Florence, Betsi and Godfrey – 3 early pioneers in healthcare” given by Prof. Alex Anstey. Further details to follow.
