New production is an epic creation

From The Bolton News, 28th February 2011


BOLTON Little Theatre’s production of The Grapes of Wrath, recreates Steinbeck’s epic tale of the Joad family’s journey from Oklahoma to California in search of work. When the Joads needed a vehicle to carry the family and their few possessions along Route 66 for 2,000 miles, luck was with them!
Epic Creation with the help of Jolyon Coombes (far right)
Jolyon Coombes, who worked at The Octagon for many years, walked into the theatre looking for a challenge. Twenty four hours later he was back with a scale model of just the jalopy to do the job. Three weeks later, with help from BLT’s resident stage crew, the finished product is in danger of being the star of the show.
Travel with them on this courageous trek by booking seats for this production which opens on Saturday March 19 and runs until March 26.
The volunteer set builders meet every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning.
Tickets for the show cost £9, and are available from the Albert Halls box office on 01204 334400 or through htpps//www.boltonlittletheatre.co.uk.

Welcome

Hello and welcome to 'The Fourth Wall', the Bolton Little Theatre blog. You may be a lifelong member of the theatre, situated on Hannover Street in the friendly town of Bolton, or you may have stumbled upon this site purely by accident whilst browsing the internet for a new steam cleaner. Whatever brought you here we hope you will stay a while, browse the posts and maybe even join in. This blog is for everyone, not just those with an interest in Bolton Little Theatre but for anyone with an interest of theatre in general. You'll find news, reviews, thoughts and opinions on the many issues affecting amateur theatre locally and nationally and we will keep you up to date with the goings on behind the scenes here at BLT.

So thanks for visiting and we hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment on anything you want (but please make sure criticism is constructive, and of course bad language will not be tolerated... not that any of you lovely people would do so). If you want to shamelessly plug a blog or website or show in the comments, you can do that to. Hey who knows, maybe we'll get in touch and create a post just for your shameless plug if we think its relevant enough.

Oh and before we begin, one last thing to note...
"The views expressed by the authors on this website do not necessarily reflect the views of the Bolton Little Theatre (BLT) management, friends and family of the BLT management, the pets of the BLT management, the Little Theatre Guild (LTG), friends and family of the LTG or pets of the LTG. In fact there is a good chance some of the views expressed by the authors on this website wont necessarily reflect the views of the authors as some of them are pretty indecisive.
Any comments left on this website are the sole responsibility of their writers and if they happen to be complete nonsense or libelous then the writer of the comment takes all blame. Also if a commenter claims that they have found the secret to eternal life, have managed to invent time travel or have managed to cure hay-fever (or other such claims) then its your own fault if you believe them. Don't go dragging us into it.
This site may occasionally link to other sites and whilst all effort is taken to ensure the appropriateness of these links we may, occasionally, link to something offensive by accident, sometimes without even knowing it (such is the way of the internet). We are not responsible for the content of any external links and do not condone or endorse the content of these sites (unless, of course, we expressively say something like "we endorse this site" or something)."
If you want to get in touch with us via email you can certainly do so, but to prevent online chemists,  african billionaires who are in hiding and scantly clad Russian girls from filling our email inbox we are going to write it out like this: boltonlittletheatre at gmail dot com. Just replace the at with an @ and the dot with a .

Okay dokey. Lets get on with the show.
