Twenty Club wants you ... to see its new play


* The famous Kitchener recruiting poster which prompted
many men to volunteer for service in World War One.

Rehearsals are now well advanced for the Twenty Club’s forthcoming production of Peter Whelan's classic play The Accrington Pals.

The Llangollen-based group is staging the moving First World War drama from March 6-8 in Llangollen Town Hall to mark the 100th anniversary of the start of the conflict in 1914. 

The Accrington Pals is based on the true story of how the smallest town in England raised a volunteer force to fight in the war, contrasting life at the front and in the 1916 Battle of the Somme with the women left behind.
