84 Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff and James Roose-Evans directed by Peter Watson
Bournemouth Little Theatre, Bournemouth, BH9 2QD
Friday 12th February 2027 7:45PM
This wonderful show is a dramatization of business letters between a young and struggling writer in New York and an antiquarian bookstore in London.
In a sense, these are also love letters. They are about the love of good literature and show a story of long-distance kindness.
The play takes place over a twenty year period, beginning in 1949, when Helene Hanff first writes to Marks & Co. the delightfully dusty suppliers of so many treasured volumes over the years and to whose staff Helene has shown her gratitude through her many letters and 'care packages' at a time when England was still recovering from the effects of the Second World War.
