Terrific Tales 2

A captivating evening that celebrates Barrow.

This FREE event was performed by a community cast, featuring the work
of our Community Writing Group.

terrIF!c tales features talking seagulls, the queue for pies at
Greens, Roanhead Beach, pubs with sticky floors, the 2010 Barrow vs
Stevenage game at Wembley and memories of the Public Hall.

This is the second year of terrIF!c tales . . .here’s what the
public said last time . . .

“I found everything so well performed, nicely spaced out and hilarious
in parts, but also so touching.”

An evening of local creativity and community
storytelling. A fantastic celebration of Barrow, full of heart
and local flavour.
