North Country Theatre: “The Gift of Stones” (evening)

Masham Town Hall, Little Market Place, Masham
19:30

“Salute the liars – they can make the real world disappear and a fresh world take its place”
The village of flint knappers is safe, self satisfied, and inward looking, but a stray arrow, an amputation, and a wild woman from the salt sea marshes bring murder, mystery and cataclysmic change.
Narrated by a one armed story teller and his daughter,in a language as pared down and flinty as their tools and weapons, Jim Crace’s award winning historical novel is brought to the stage by the company whose
brilliant adaptations have ranged from the hilarious “39 Steps” to the scary “The Rocking Horse Winner”, and most recently the deeply moving “A Month in the Country”.
Tickets £10 from Mashamshire Community Office 01765 680200. Email: info@visitmasham.com
