This venue is staging My Fair Lady next month within St Saviour's Church, Thurlstone. I only found out about it from a programme I bought at another show yesterday. Not an easy place to get to by public transport from Kent but I'm keen to see it and there are matinees on Saturdays and Sundays.
I understand Evita was successfully staged there by the Endellion Theatre Company in 2018.
All my google and facebook searches lead nowhere. Does anyone know anything about the venue or production ?

Lovely part of the world, nestled in the south Pennines, but yes, difficult to reach by private transport, let alone public. At least the weather should finally be on your side by then!
Turns out I either know, or know of, half the cast. The other half should, if permitted, be flying in from South Africa. It reads like they'll be alternating roles, so every performance will not just be unique, but extra unique.
I've still not mastered the art of posting a link on my smartphone, but if you search for 'St Saviours Church Thurlstone Facebook' there is a little more information, including cast and creative bios.

I had no idea this was happening and is very close to home. If it does indeed go ahead then I must try and get there - thanks for the heads up!
Penistone Station is walkable (about a mile and a half) but would be no good after an evening performance.

Sadly, but not surprisingly, it has been announced that this is no longer happening.
