FILM CLUB @ The Old School - "MR BURTON"
Doors open at 7pm for refreshments. Film starts at 7.30pm.
No admission charge. New members are always welcome. Donations for refreshments welcome to help with the upkeep of The Old School.
The film “Mr Burton” tells the true story of the relationship between Port Talbot schoolmaster Philip Burton ( Toby Jones) and a wild young schoolboy called Richard Jenkins (Harry Lawtey) the son of a wayward drunk. Richard dreamed of becoming an actor but a combination of family troubles, the pressure of war and his total lack of discipline threatened to derail this ambition. Mr Burton, recognising the raw talent in his pupil, became his tutor, taskmaster and eventually, his adoptive father.
“Director Marc Evans’s film is a wonderful thing — Toby Jones and Lesley Manville are predictably excellent.”
“The story of a poor, lowly valley boy’s rise through incredible
adversity to become one of Hollywood's leading lights is
extraordinary.”
“We all knew Burton was a legendary actor but this film goes way beyond the legend, offering a deeper understanding into who the man really was—---- and that Voice!!! ”

GO "AWAY" CAT (& other stories) by OWDYADO THEATRE
CARN TO COVE
Doors open @ 7pm
Cornish writer and actor Daniel Richards brings you an evening of darkly comic story telling… a live action audio book… story time for adults.
Go ‘Away’ Cat (and other stories) is a funny and thoughtful collection of true stories and essays that explore big themes through ridiculous circumstances, reminiscent in style and presentation of writer and wit David Sedaris.
Restlessness, morality, fellowship and grief are discussed through tales of children playing with rusty saws, desperate artists fighting off angry mobs and drug induced games resulting in a search for a lost toe.
Grab a glass of wine, sit back, relax and be lead into a unique, poetic and sometimes chaotic world presented by ‘Owdyado Theatre, a side of Cornwall less explored and rarely represented.
Tickets in advance: Standard: £12, Under 18s: £10, Family: £40 or Support the show (including £3 donation): £15
Tickets may be purchased online or by calling 01209 312505 (Monday - Friday, 10am - 3pm) or book via The Old School 01579 370493.
*Please note, the £1.50 transaction charge is non-refundable*
