MIKRON THEATRE – A DOG’S TALE
Date: WEDNESDAY 15th SEPTEMBER 2021
Venue: Millgate Theatre, Delph
Time: 8.00pm
Cost: £14
We have been offered 20 tickets only which must be paid for by the end of June. If you feel like getting back to some form of normality, and fancy this show then please let us know ASAP.
Explore the extraordinary world of heroic hounds, pampered pedigrees and naughty nobblers through the halls and history of Crufts. Linda and her wayward rescue dog Gary are pursued by security through the halls and history of Crufts, accused of a terrible crime. When Charles Cruft, the ‘Greatest Showman in Dogdom’, held his first show in 1891, he had a sense that dog ownership and breeding was about to be pretty big. Help cheer the underdog, as we celebrate canines past and present and explore the enduring love between people and their dogs.
