Farnham Maltings with Glimmer Theatre bring The River Runner
Professional Live Theatre back at Freckenham village hall.
There is the option to stay after the event for a Q&A as several people have story's to tell of skating of the fens!
It’s 1901 in Isleham village, Cambridgeshire and Annabelle Howgego is the best ice-skater for miles around. Once a year, the watery Fens freeze smooth and white and the villagers prepare to race each other for prizes of bread and meat.
An exhilarating tale of courage, community and speedy-skating, The River Runner is a brand new show for all generations to enjoy together, telling the thrilling tale of a Victorian ice skater who uses her extraordinary skills to defeat her cruel landlord and set her village free.
Featuring a live original score of soaring folk tunes and ballads and inspired by accounts of female Fenland ice skaters in the early twentieth century, enjoy this adventure story for all generations exploring family, female sport and the rural experience...
