About this Event

Be the first to hear the story before it hits the stage

I am thrilled to invite you to an exclusive reading of Tin to Tinsel Town, a new work by David Galloway and performed by Kerry Frater.

Grab your ticket and take a chair, and join me for an intimate evening with Gareth Hughes sharing some of his life’s adventures which took him from the Tin Town of Llanelli to the Tinsel Town of Hollywood. Hear of the people he met on the way. A M**der where some thought he knew more than he said. The native Americans he pastored for and the Hollywood friends he had.

This is followed by a Q&A where you can share your thoughts with the author.

This is a reading. This preproduction is with minimal staging, props and costumes. This is an exciting time in the life of a play and your feedback is important.

If you’ve never taken in a reading, this is a great time to start.
