Words present London Road – in Bromsgrove

Bromsgrove’s literary group, Words, presents players from The National Theatre in excerpts from London Road – on Friday, January 25th.

London Road documents the events of 2006, when the quiet town of Ipswich was shattered by the discovery of the bodies of five women.

Alecky Blythe’s verbatim script recreates the actual speech of a community caught up in a catastrophe: serial killing.

What strikes first is the incongruous clash of colloquial speech and choral singing – the effect can be highly comical, but you won’t always feel comfortable laughing

The performance starts at 8.00.p.m and tickets, at £12 ( £6 for students ), are available from the Box Office on 01527-577330, or you can book online at www.artrix.co.uk
