New songs about the coast between Blakeney and the Wash, and a few old ones.

Ada Fenn grew up on the north Norfolk coast and has spent three winters writing about it: the marsh, the boats, the people who stayed. Her second record comes out the week before this show.

Kit Darrow plays fiddle and sings the harmonies. A short support set from the Quayside Folk Club’s own singers opens the night.

Before you come

Everything about your visit
When do the doors open?

At 19:15, for the foyer, the bar and The Nave. Seats are unreserved unless it says otherwise.

How long is it?

It starts at 20:00 and ends at about 22:15.

Is there a bar?

The Yard bar opens with the doors and through every interval: local beer and cider, wine, soft drinks and coffee. You can take drinks into the Nave in our glasses.

Can I bring children?

Yes, to anything without an age on its page. Under-fives come free to the Sunday at Four concerts and the family mornings, sitting on a lap.

What if I arrive late?

We let latecomers in at a suitable break, to the back of the hall or the gallery. For theatre that is the interval.
