Press Release

Poulner Players’ next production is This Year, Next Year, a play set in Bournemouth in 1944. Written by Norah Harding, it is the autobiographical tale of a young woman and her family coping with all that war has to offer during the last few months before D-Day. It recreates the hardships and profound effect of war on their lives and loves, and the great courage, compassion, and humour they draw on to overcome those trials. Norah Harding herself married a Canadian soldier and emigrated to London, Ontario. She wrote this account when she was 70; it was first performed in Canada in 1996. This production by Poulner Players will mark its UK premiere. The play runs from Wed 18 to Sat 21 August at Poulner Church Hall, Linford Road, Ringwood, BH24 1TY. The Players will be making a donation from the proceeds to The Royal British Legion. Tickets: 01425 473219 or e-mail tickets@poulner-players.org.uk.
