Trinity Arts Centre Gainsborough April to June 2018 Theatre - Cinema Dance Music Thank you! There wouldn’t be much point us being here if it wasn’t for you; and what a great start to 2018 you have given us. Sell out shows, extra film screenings, a new youth theatre and lots of compliments about our excellent team of staff and volunteers. We are lucky to have such support, and I hope we can continue to develop the theatre in ways which keep you coming back for more. We don’t always get everything right, but I am delighted that I have received valuable feedback about where we can improve, and you can be confident that we are working hard to improve those areas. We have a great Easter lined up for you, starting with ‘The Easter Bunny’s Eggs Factor’. This is a fantastic, family show, particularly suitable for 2-7 year old's, brought to you by the same team behind our sell out Santa shows last Christmas. You can sing-a-long with ‘Old MacDonald Had A Farm’, ‘The Grand Old Duke Of York’ and more, then meet the Easter Bunny to collect a free chocolate treat for every child! Our live shows offer something for everyone, from the soaring sax solos of Snake Davis to the music of The Carpenters, Johnny Cash, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, The Who, Carole King and James Taylor. Live theatre returns with Baroque Theatre and their new production ‘Twist’, a rip-roaring comedy thriller that will have you guessing until the shocking end! Add in another strong cinema programme to the mix (with plenty of award winners and nominees) then I hope there will be plenty to keep you coming back for more. See you soon!
