We have arranged a fundraising event at St. Michael’s High School in Chorley on Friday, 25th May starting at 7.45 pm.
Chorley based ‘Theatre in Education’ company Top Box Productions have kindly offered to stage their play about the First World War on the evening.
Entitled “A call to arms”, it is based on the Chorley Pals – from them volunteering in 1914 to the aftermath of the battle of the Somme in 1916.
Originally for Year 9 students, the play lasts about an hour and is delivered in front of simple backcloths.
Tickets are priced at £6.00 for adults and £3.00 for senior citizens and students, and will be available from Wednesday, 2nd May at Malcolm’s Musicland in Chapel Street, Chorley or by post from the Chorley Remembers Project Office, c/o Chorley Building Society, Key House, Foxhole Road, Chorley PR7 1NZ (cheques should be made payable to “Chorley Remembers Appeal Fund”). Any unsold tickets will be made available at the door on the night.
All proceeds will go towards engraving the names of the fallen from Chorley on the town’s Cenotaph in Astley Park.
