Thanks

The cast and creative team would like to thank: Carrie Andrews - rehearsal space, transport, music advice, even more books and endless patience; Jai Campbell; James Hough; Barry Heselden; Lindsey Scott; Caroline Doyle and the company of There Is A War.

All the volunteers in the bar, box office, publicity and front of house teams - SLT would fall apart without your hard work.

Our condolences and commiserations to Dave Hollander and the company of Low Pay? Don't Pay!, which you should have been watching (now).

Abandoned poster design

The poster you see above was the second design, the one which actually made it onto the publicity material. The original design (right) was not used in case of possibly upsetting a well known publisher, and is included here for historical interest only.
