This one-man comedy drama was written and is performed by Matt Panesh, who recently performed with John Cooper Clarke in Morecambe.

In a style similar to the Flashman series of books, the play is based on the colourful real-life story of Lt John Greenwood, who served in Afghanistan in 1842.

Tickets are £5 or by donation, and can be booked in advance via [email protected] or from the venue.
