New season, new shows!

We have just about dusted off the last of the glitter from Beauty and The Beast and are looking ahead to the new shows we have coming up. We have top comedy from Justin Moorhouse, Al Murray and Sean Lock to name only a few, more fantastic music including Kings Ov Leon and Maet Loaf- two incredible tribute bands, and excellent drama from Icarus Theatre and of course, Stafford Festival Shakespeare. This year's show is A Midsummer Night's Dream and it is promising to be very magical.
