A talk & scene from the play by FPAC
Many of you will have heard of the Ingoldsby Legends, published under the pen name Thomas Ingoldsby of Tappington Hall. “The World, according to the best geographers, is divided into Europe, Asia, Africa, America and Romney Marsh” is a quote from one of the stories – The Leech of Folkestone… but have you ever read it?
Join Matthew Hahn and the Folkestone Performing Arts Company to learn how they turned the story into a play that they plan to take “on tour” and immerse yourself in the world of apothecary Master Erasmus Buckthorne.

Time: 2pm for 2:30pm start
Location: The Cornerstone Centre, which is the former United Reformed Church near Central Station – the home of the South Kent Community Church – Use the back hall entrance opposite Kingsnorth Gardens.
