The Gage Players are an amateur drama group in Walton-on-the-Hill. This Spring they present a funny new play called ‘Molly’s Calling’.

Molly’s Calling is a comedy about a bunch of oddities who take on the world and knock some sense into it. But don’t pass them off as cranks. Their machinations are remarkably successful, managing to keep the Russian menace at bay and promising to create a country like the Good Old Days. It’s set in a retirement home but don’t let that fool you either – their influence goes far wider. Intrigued? Where: The Riddell Memorial Hall, Deans Lane, Walton on the Hill, Surrey. KT20 7UA. Date: 23, 24, 25th April 2020 Doors open: 7.30pm

SUTTON SYMPHONY Orchestra
Spring Concert showcases local composer and soloists.
Sutton Symphony Orchestra returns to St Andrew’s URC Cheam on Saturday 28th March with much to celebrate in a concert featuring a new commission written specially for the orchestra and the final of Sutton Music Service’s Young Musician of the Year competition. All this plus an epic symphony more than adequately answers the question on everyone’s lips since their summer concert - “how do you follow Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite?” Firstly enjoy Carshalton-born composer David Hackbridge
Johnson’s commission for Sutton Symphony Orchestra “River Wandle Suite” which is in five movements and takes us along the Wandle from Carshalton Ponds, past the water grasses and mills into a rousing fugue of a finale. Next up, three talented members of the Borough’s Youth Music Service will be showcasing their skills. Elgar’s 1st Symphony forms the second half of the concert – around 50 minutes of epic scoring of music that is noble, passionate, intense, lyrical, and very grand.
