On Saturday 19 December 1981, the Penlee lifeboat ‘Solomon Browne’, was launched in hurricane conditions to go to the aid of the coaster ‘Union Star’ that had engine failure and was being swept towards the southern coast of Cornwall. It was an attempted rescue which ranks not only with the greatest in the history of the RNLI, but with any human achievement.  

The Original Theatre Company in association with Martyn Hayes presents  INTO THE NIGHT by Frazer Flintham based on the book Penlee: The Loss of a Lifeboat by Michael Sagar-Fenton.

A brand-new production for the first modern thriller, Dial M for Murder, is back at the Dubai Opera from the 22-23 November. Made famous by Alfred Hitchcock's 1954 film version, Dial M For Murder was written by the British playwright Frederick Knott, and is a spine-chilling tale filled with twists and turns.

Made famous by Alfred Hitchcock's world-renowned film of 1954, the iconic Dial M for Murder will leave audiences spellbound as the protagonist becomes more tangled in the web of his own making.
