And to help support its work, a charity performance of ‘Farndale Avenue - Macbeth’ is taking place at the Sharnbrook Mill Theatre on Monday, March 12.

The play is a comedy about a Townswomens Guild amateur dramatics group putting on a performance of Macbeth and everything that can go wrong, seems to.

A description of the play says: “The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen’s Guild Dramatic Society ladies mount yet another assault on the classics with a startlingly original production of Macbeth staged to get them to the Welwyn Garden City Finals.

“Under the carefully mascara’d eye of adjudicator George Peach, all events conspire hilariously against them.’
