Lovesong
Hebden Bridge Little Theatre Holme Street, Hebden BridgeBy Abi Morgan, directed by Mike Bellenie The playwright, Abi Morgan, and celebrated theatre company, Frantic Assembly, collaborated on this unforgettable love story, about the 40-year marriage of Maggie and Billy, as Maggie’s illness threatens to end it. Past and present collide. The kitchen and bedroom of Maggie and Billy's house, where the walls were never scribbled on by longed-for children, are stalked by the ghosts of their younger selves: the smooth-skinned, radiant Margaret and William. An old woman walks into the wardrobe and a young woman walks out. An elderly man dances with the memory of his young wife; a young man makes love to the woman his new wife will eventually become. Lovesong is a radical departure for the Little Theatre, as the production will feature the unique choreography, for which Frantic Assembly is famous.

‘Allo ‘Allo!
Hebden Bridge Little Theatre Holme Street, Hebden BridgeBy Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft, directed by Rachel Peter Adapted from the long-running, popular TV series, ‘Allo ‘Allo! centres around René Artois the cowardly cafe-owner with an eye for the ladies, who gets caught up in the madcap escapades of the French Resistance, whilst all the time trying desperately to ingratiate himself with the occupying German forces. The stage adaptation features the familiar running gags, and all your favourite characters, such as René's tone-deaf wife Edith, Major-General von Klinkerhoffen and the Gestapo officer Herr Flick. ‘Allo ‘Allo! is broad comedy, with elements of farce, physical comedy, visual gags, ridiculous fake accents, and a large amount of sexual innuendo. What’s not to like?!
