adie on sale

tickets for the Lichfield Literary Dinner with Kate Adie as guest speaker went on sale at 9am this morning, and by noon half of the available seats had already sold. Go Kate! We may need to revisit this to see whether we can fit in a few more people than we were planning...
Having just returned from leave, I am belatedly at the final stages of scheduling the Lichfield Literature programme. While we'll be in a position to announce next week the full line up of speakers, one other event that we are already spreading the word about is a puppet show to mark the 40th anniversary of Eric Carle's masterpiece The Very Hungry Caterpillar, which continues our programming of events for families and young children. There will be three performances on Friday 9 October at Wade Street Church.
