Kenny Glynn is the world’s biggest Saints fan and for 25 years he has been locked in a game of football against the world. On his 26th birthday the world steps up its game and Kenny Glynn faces the match of his life as he takes on women, money and status with the help of his mates, his family and the guiding spirit of Matt Le Tissier. Can they conquer all the things the world is throwing at them? Will Southampton ever win the FA cup again? And what can we learn from the icons we hold so dearly at the club?

Oh What a Lovely War

Salisbury Playhouse performed by A Stage ’65 Youth Theatre & Musical Group

Thursday 7^th August 7.30pm Tickets £15.00

It’s 1914 and Europe is on the brink of war. Your country needs you, so enlist today!

This stirring and satirical musical entertainment about the First World War was an immediate international hit for Joan Littlewood’s Theatre Workshop in 1963.

To commemorate the struggles and sacrifices of wartime, Stage ’65 Youth Theatre and Musical Theatre Salisbury join forces to deliver sketches and songs from the front line and across Europe.

The optimism of the British Home Front and the blood-soaked fields of Flanders are brought to life with an armoury of songs such as Pack Up Your Troubles, Keep the Home Fires Burning and It’s a Long Way to Tipperary. Oh What a Lovely War is moving and funny evocation of the tragedy and pathos of the most ferocious conflicts in history.

As part of Wiltshire’s wider commemorations of The Great War, this production opens on the 100th anniversary of Britain’s official entry into the conflict.
