Synopsis:
In the Welsh town of Port Talbot, 1942, Richard Jenkins (Harry Lawtey) lives as a wayward schoolboy, caught between the pressures of his struggling family, a devastating war, and his own ambitions. However, a new opportunity arises when Richard’s natural talent for drama catches the attention of his teacher, Philip Burton (BAFTA winner Toby Jones). Taking Richard under his wing, the young man thrives thanks to Philip’s strict tutelage and the guidance of kindly landlady, Ma Smith (Academy Award nominee Lesley Manville). However, as the acting world comes within Richard’s reach, the burden of his past risks holding him back forever.

Submit An Event

Please enter the event details below. Please allow 2-3 working days before your event appears on the site if you have not posted an event before, as new event submissions will need to be approved.

Important: Please submit only events taking place in (or organised by clubs/societies based in) Stanford in the Vale or the neighbouring villages of Shellingford, Hatford, Gainfield and Goosey. See the map below.

Sorry, but submissions relating to events outside this area will be rejected.

If the event listing on the Stanford website included events from Faringdon, Wantage and further afield then the list would be large and of less value to Stanford residents. Faringdon and Wantage have their own websites with events listings.

If your event spans several days please submit an entry for the first day only and provide the details about the start/end dates in the event description.
