Flickbook Theatre present… Our Lincolnshire in Grantham

Flickbook Theatre have successfully completed their first heritage performance Showcase, which was held in Louth. This coming weekend, they will be performing again, this time in Grantham. This will be a different performance, designed to reflect Grantham’s rich history and particularly the town’s strong female presence.

Join them in Grantham for a free performance, with free cake!

This performance is a culmination of six weeks of workshops. They have enjoyed immersing themselves in Grantham’s rich history and heritage with the help of local residents, who have also been keen to share what it means to be a real local.

Flickbook are performing at the Guildhall Arts Centre on Saturday 26 March at 6.30pm, telling their story of Grantham’s heritage.

Coming up: workshops in four venues across Lincolnshire as part of the ‘Our Lincolnshire’ project. A series of six weekend workshops are planned in Grantham, Louth, Pinchbeck, and Gainsborough culminating in final performances in late March and early April.

The ‘Our Lincolnshire’ performance opportunity is open to absolutely everyone in the county, and the aim is to connect the people of Lincolnshire with their local heritage and the issues relating to heritage that matter to them.

And the best bit? It’s completely free!

You will get to explore, create and perform alongside the theatre companies in your own piece of theatre that will be shown in the final week to a live audience. All you need to take part is an interest in theatre and an open mind…
