THE SILVER SCREEN
 Thursday December 18th at The Boston Tea Party, Ringwood

On radio, the pictures are better, and heard stories could well be called films for the mind. So it is not surprising that we should take The Silver Screen as the theme for our last meeting of the year.

How will the tellers respond? In the past, Graham Rogers has told The Incredible Shrinking Man and a wonderful, expanded and extended version of The Day The World Stood Still. But perhaps it's not the content of the films that will inspire our tellers, but the experience of seeing them - the atmosphere of the flea-pit in the high street that opened up the world through flickering images - just as we hope our stories will open up the world through the flickering images they create in the minds of you, the listeners.

Come along, and find out!
