Posted on: 21 Jan 2018The Redgrave Theatre is proud to host Pacifists and Protestors in February, featuring a performance of Alexander J Gifford's A Dangerous Woman and a presentation of the words of poets and other protestors from the First World War era. Tickets for the events on Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th February are on sale now, and can be found here.

The aforementioned performance of A Dangerous Woman was recently shortlisted for the Adrian Pagan New Writing Award.
Bristol's Redgrave Theatre was officially opened in 1986 by Sir Michael Redgrave, a former student of the old Clifton College Theatre. The Theatre's popularity has continued to grow over the years, as they champion amateur drama as well as hosting professional productions. Pacifists and Protestors, originally produced to mark the 100th Anniversary of the end of the First World War, has recieved support from The Heritage Lottery to explore a largely forgotten and overlooked part of British history.
Pacifists and Protestors will be shown at The Redgrave Theatre on Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th February 2018, with doors opening at 7.30pm. Tickets are priced at £12 and can be booked here. For more information or for further enquiries, visit The Redgrave Theatre's Facebook page.
