Welcome all to another packed Spring-Summer season at Solihull’s Core Theatre. Those of you who have visited our panto over the last two decades may know that Solihull’s ‘Mr Panto’ Malcolm Stent is hanging up his frilled shirt and golden waistcoat and stepping down from his mammoth role after 27 years! He’s built the show into a family favourite and was thrilled to be honoured in Her Majesty’s New Year Honours list for his ’Services to Entertainment’. He enjoyed a fabulous day at Buckingham Palace in the Summer and is rightly proud of his medal. He decided to make Jack & The Beanstalk his last panto but, like any true stage pro he won’t stop working… so he’ll continue to write and perform, here and around the Midlands. We’ll continue to stage professional pantomimes here and the show will be ‘re-booted’ next year or as they say in Dr Who… regenerated! We’ll continue to welcome back our family audiences of all ages continuing our fantastic pantomime tradition here in Solihull. It’s tricky to pick season highlights as our audiences are so varied but The Reverend Richard Coles fresh from BBCs Strictly Come Dancing show is here on Tues 30th Jan, see page 4. G Dear Zoo , the popular children’s book has been beautifully adapted for stage RE AT for the first time, see page 7.

    The Old Post Office Abergavenny NP7 8PL £550,000 .0 A SYMPATHETICALLY RESTORED 5/6 BEDROOMED STONE BUILT HOUSE OCCUPYING A CENTRE OF VILLAGE SETTING WITHIN EASY COMMUTING OF ABERGAVENNY, MONMOUTH AND HEREFORD, YET ONLY MINUTES AWAY FROM A WELL REGARDED PRIMARY SCHOOL. Particulars. The village of Cross Ash is located about midway between the two market towns of Abergavenny and Monmouth, both having good shopping facilities, the latter perhaps better known for its public schools. The former has a well used rail link with connection to Newport, Cardiff and Hereford and stations North. While the village retains its historic layout, it does pride itself in a modern primary school which lies a few minutes walk away, which draws its pupils in from quite a wide area. The community is also served by an Inn. The Old Post Office ceased to trade early in this century having commenced about 100 years earlier when it supplied the main essentials to this community and anyone visiting the wheel wrights opposite! Our Client/Vendors purchased the property in 2005/2006 and in about a year later installed uPVC double glazing virtually throughout. Since then they have capped off all the chimneys, have redecorated the house, tidied the outbuildings which according to information passed to our Clients, had at an earlier date Planning Consent to be used as an annex, but which has subsequently expired! The accommodation which is in our opinion well presented is ideal as a multi generation house, or even as a Bed and Breakfast establishment (subject to Planning Consent), it affords the following:- 'THE BREAD OVEN' 15' 8'' x 11' 4'' (4.77m x 3.45m) overall, now used as an Entrance Hall, providing for the storage of coats, footwear etc.

  • Introduction and Biography
    Introduction and Biography Joshua Byron Smith Geoffrey of Monmouth has suffered a glorious indignity that few writers have ever achieved: his creation has completely outstripped the maker. Few members of the general public, even well-educated ones, recognize the name Geoffrey of Monmouth. (A fact that the personal experience of this chatty me- dievalist has confirmed on numerous awkward occasions). But his creation is another matter altogether. The names of King Arthur, Guinevere, and their at- tendant knights perk up the ears of taxi drivers, coal mining fathers and grand- fathers, and even scholars of contemporary literature. Medievalists, though we may know Geoffrey’s name, have found him hard to contain and classify. So far-ranging is Geoffrey’s work that he falls under the purview of several schol- arly fields, many of which remain relatively isolated from one another: folklore, history, romance, manuscript studies, Celtic studies, classical reception, and medieval Latin – not to mention the seemingly endless expanse of Geoffrey’s Nachleben, with its parade of translations, adaptations, and inspirations that continues to the present day. This volume aims to bring together, for the first time, many of these fields and to offer something close to a comprehensive overview of Geoffrey’s life and work. It is our hope that this volume will serve as a current snapshot of Galfridian scholarship, incite more interest in Geoffrey and his work, and bring his artistry into greater prominence, all of which – if one is allowed to dream – might ultimately lead to slightly fewer blank stares for some of us. Geoffrey’s fame rests on three Latin works, the earliest of which is the Prophetiae Merlini (“The Prophecies of Merlin”, hereafter abbreviated PM), a collection of prophecies completed before Henry I’s death in 1135.1 With ba- roque animalistic imagery and apocalyptic fervor, its meaning sometimes seems transparent, and yet at other times playfully obscure.
