Richard Sisson and Petroc Trelawny
Then, at 7.30pm (doors open at 7pm), join the du Maurier Fowey Literary Festival for a special, pre-Christmas Festival evening full of music, brain teasers, quizzes, and conversation with BBC Radio 3's Petroc Trelawny, author and quizmaster extraordinaire!
Joining Petroc will be Richard Sisson, formally 'Widow' of Kit and the Widow, and renowned musician and score writer of Alan Bennett's play, The History Boys.
Come with a friend, in a small group (max 6), or join in solo! There will be a Festival bar and a Christmas raffle, and Petroc will be signing copies of his latest books.
It's going to be a fun night.
