8.00 pm

Newquay Dramatic Society presents
An Evening of Two Halves

Blood on Canvas – Directed by Zoe Elliot
Artist Maddie is beginning to establish herself as a successful artist, but her studio and gallery are situated in a remote area and a killer is apparently on the loose. When art collector Stella arrives, it becomes clear that one of them is the killer. The tension rises inexorably…to the shocking denouement.

A Friend of Ronnies – Directed by Andy Fox
For the past twenty years Edith Norris has been living with her husband’s dark secret, convinced that one day they will be found out. Now in retirement from his job on the railways, Arthur has put this to the back of his mind and lives each day as it comes.   Today, 8th August 1983, on the twentieth anniversary of The Great Train Robbery, “someone’s knocking on the door, someone’s ringing the bell”………is this the discovery Edith has been dreading?   Join us at Lane Theatre Newquay  to see if Edith’s worst nightmare has finally come true……that someone has at last found out about their secret.   Comedy and pathos are served up in equal measure as Arthur and Edith try to deal with the stranger in their midst.

Tickets £10/£9 concessions

Woodland walk near Newquay

Woodland Walk near Newquay

Venture out of Newquay on a woodland walk with your family and pooch. There are some beautiful woodland areas to explore within a 40 minute drive of Newquay.

If you want to venture outside of Newquay, one lovely woodland walk we would recommend is Cardinham Woods near Bodmin.

Cornwall is probably most famous its golden sandy beaches but why not head out of town a little to one of the nearby woodland areas. Let the dog run off the lead as you marvel at the vast wooded area around you. There are also cycle tracks for those wishing to go slightly faster.
