Jack Kerouac’s On the Road; Lincoln Drill Hall

Jack Kerouac’s On the Road; Lincoln Drill Hall Friday 28 March @ 12 pm.

Lunchtime Literature Talk with Dr. Jane Mackay.

This is the novel that shook the ‘American Dream’ and epitomised the teenage rebellion of the 1950s. It gave voice to what came to be called the ‘Beat Generation’ of underground America, with its love of rock and roll, drugs and motor bikes. Come and explore the life of this compulsive writer who anchored a particular time and place and changed what was ‘acceptable’ in literature for ever.

2pm Film: Easy Rider (1969, 92 mins, 18) Directed by Dennis Hopper and starring Peter Fonda, Jack Nicholson and Dennis Hopper.

Tickets: Talk only £6.50 Talk and Film £10 Tickets from 01522 873894

Theatre Imp: Irena's Vow @ Lincoln Drill Hall

Theatre Imp: Irena's Vow @ Lincoln Drill Hall
Tuesday 11 Feb–Thursday 13 Feb 2014, 7.30pm

New local amateur company Theatre Imp’s debut production is the incredible true story of Irena Gut, a Polish Catholic, who, witnessing the fate of Jews in German-occupied Poland, began a very personal rescue campaign.

Dan Gordon’s wonderful play captures Irena’s irony and sense of humour in the face of adversity and the play is as uplifting as it is thought provoking.

The team at Lincoln Drill Hall are delighted that Irena’s daughter, Jeannie, is flying from America to attend all the performances.

This UK premier coincides with commemorative events taking place to mark Holocaust Memorial Day.
