There will be plenty of choice for vegans, vegetarians and carnivores.

​​​​OLD HERBACEOUS
With Giles Shenton
Saturday 10 October

Old Herbaceous is the humorous love story of a single-minded yet gentle man with a passion for plants; the legendary Head Gardener, Herbert Pinnegar.  He invites you to feel included in a private chat from a bygone, comforting age, keeping you engrossed, amused and emotionally engaged from start to finish.

An acute and sometimes hilarious observation of relationships between the classes in a simpler age, Old Herbaceous is sprinkled with witticisms and epithets. The evening blossoms into tender humour, much in the traditionally understated English style of the early 20th century.
