Robinson Crusoe Vs The Pirates is perfect for all ages. The show is a celebration of community theatre, featuring stunning songs and costumes with the charm and magic that makes village pantomime a beloved tradition.

“We are keen that our shows are as affordable, inclusive and accessible as we can - so I'm pleased we have launched a £10 offer to share with Blue Badge and Access Card holders in the local area.” said Matt Streuli, Chair of IHDC. The offer, available via their box office at www.ticketsource.co.uk/ihdc, is for Blue Badge or Access Card holder and their carer or guest for just £10.

The club has been performing at the Iver Heath Village Hall since it was built in 1965 and actively supports the village hall Charity.
