Richard Wilson joins our Campaign
We are thrilled to have the support of Richard Wilson in our fund-raising for the Nantwich Theatre Project. He is currently starring as Malvolio in the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of Twelfth Night. Some of the cast of our own production (starting 19 February) went to see him perform in Stratford.

HOLLY HOLY DAY
Our traditional role is to
perform a short play based on the situation in Nantwich at the time of the
Battle in 1644. This year there was a
cast of 15 and one very special character – a bear who has to be held by ropes
and chains.
The Trial of Willie Young ended with acquittal for Willie and a spell in the stocks for the inn-keeper who couldn't keep his bear under control.
