Liz Bennet Ropewalk development Officer commented
‘Staff at The Ropewalk were delighted by the response to the autumn programme and we are looking forward to seeing regular visitors and new audience members over the next few weeks. For me the highlight of the new programme has to be the comic genius John Shuttleworth in March. I have seen him many times over the last few years, most recently at Hull Truck last summer and he never fails to entertain and amuse. The fashion show in March is a new venture for us tying in with an exhibition of recycled textiles in galleryone for which preparations are now underway. With great films from Barton film group and music from Mark Keeble at mtm promotions we hope to brighten dark nights before the spring.’

Tickets for all events can be bought in advance either in person at The Ropewalk, Maltkiln Road, Barton on Humber or by calling 01652 660380.
