Shore Lines: salty tales with a coastal setting, told by The Border Readers

The brilliant Border Readers are an association of regionally based experienced professional actors who present themed audio narratives in libraries, art centres, galleries, hostelries, village halls, theatres, pubs and historic houses across the English border counties and into Scotland.

The evening will comprise four short stories told by members of The Border Readers. The event will last about two hours. There will be an interval midway, when light refreshments will be served (included in the price of your ticket).

Please be aware there are no toilets at the church. You'll find public toilets just down the road at Elsdon Village Hall. Refreshments will be served in the interval (also a good opportunity to nip along to the loo if you need to!) Even in September, it can be chilly in the church so bring layers.

There is an informal layby opposite the church, on the village green. However, we do encourage you to use the parking area beside the burn about 100 yards east of the church, near the village hall (it's free!)

The gently sloping path up to the church porch is fine gravel - not ideal for wheelchairs but possible with a bit of help. Once inside, the floor is generally level and the aisles are wide. Acoustics and lighting are good. But please remember there are no toilets (accessible loo at the village hall)

It's called Bamburgh Beach and was painted by the talented Ben Haslam, who is based in Hexham. Find out more about Ben and his work by searching Haslam's of Hallgate.

You DO NOT need to print your ticket! We will have a list - just give us your name when you arrive.
