“When the weather is fine you know it’s the time
For messing about on the river
If you take my advice there’s nothing so nice
As messing about on the river.”
Join us on Saturday at The Hall on 16th August for a Giles Shenton open-air Performance of “Three Men In A Boat”, adapted from the classic book by Jerome K. Jerome.
Giles Shenton expertly takes the helm and pilots you through the ridiculous and hilarious tale of men (and a dog!) behaving badly while messing about in boats on the Thames…
Weather permitting, the show will take place outside making the most of our lovely setting and some good August weather (fingers crossed, but indoors if wet).
Arrive from 5:00pm, show starts 6:00pm, finish approx 8:00pm.
The Hall Bar will be open from 5:00 pm and during the interval, for drinks, coffees and ice-cream as well as post-show to extend the evening.
Get your tickets direct from The Hall at info@thehallevents.org.uk / 07775 765572 or from the online Box Office

All Welcome.
See message of thanks below from Lois Dudfield, co-chair of the Cherington and Stourton Show Committee:
‘We would like to thank each & everyone one of you who attended, members of the public, setting up & breaking down helpers, poster & flyer deliverers, stall holders, class entrants & most of all The Cherington & Stourton Show team, without this fabulous group of people the show would simply not take place, the effort that goes on behind the scenes each year is incredible.
Please do keep an ear out for our AGM date, as your feedback is crucial & we also love to hear what you think.
For now, thank you again, until next year – Over & Out’.
Due to low uptake of stall holders because of holidays, village fetes etc. the Farmers’ Market organisers have decided to cancel the August market.
The next one will be held as usual on September 4th from 6 – 8pm.
Please could you spare some time during the evening on Thursday 31st July and Friday August 1st to help set up this year’s show.
We will meet at The Hall and Playing Field at 6pm each evening and likely finish by 8pm with a free drink at the pub to finish!
Clearing Up after the Show starts at 10am on Sunday morning and is usually finished by 12.00.
Thank you from The Cherington & Stourton Show Team.
It would be great to see new players at this year’s tournament. Everyone is welcome, however rusty or however good.
Matches are played in the morning on various courts around Cherington, Stourton and Sutton. The format ensures everyone can enjoy their time on court.
Then we all gather at Brook House, Cherington (thank you Nicole and Jonathan) for the final and a pot-luck lunch.
Anyone who lives, or has lived, in Cherington, Stourton or Sutton-under-Brailes is welcome to join.
if you would like to play, or would like more information, please contact sallyclubley@gmail.com
