U3A Classics-Life in Roman Spain

Around 600 Latin inscriptions from Roman Spain and Portugal can be used to explore the extent and nature of life within the region in the Roman period. The talk will also cover what we can learn from these inscriptions about life including the role women played. Claire’s research lies in Roman social and economic history. She has published articles and contributed to, and edited, several books.

Monty Hall's : Churchill’s Killing House

Join local author Monty Halls as he tells one of the great un-known tales of WW2. In a remote house in Scotland, during Britain’s darkest hour, an extraordinary group of renegades, outliers, eccentrics, and visionaries gathered to create a new type of fighter. The story of the force they created, and the great raids they undertook (some of which were launched from Dartmouth), is told in his new book “Churchill’s Killing House”. Signed copies will be available on the night. Monty is a former Royal Marines officer, best known for his three hugely popular BBC series ‘Great Escapes’, where he lived on the west coasts of Scotland and Ireland with his dog Reuben. Monty went on to present the multi-award-winning BBC series ‘Great Barrier Reef, the Fisherman’s Apprentice’, again for the BBC, as well as series for Discovery and Channel 5.

A Hundred Words for Snow

A Hundred Words for Snow by Tatty Hennessy is a funny, wry and bittersweet one-woman show about fifteen-year-old Rory, whose father has died – leaving her with his ashes, sealed forever inside a cheap, disappointing urn. Left to make sense of loss on her own, Rory is angry, sharp-tongued and overwhelmed by the strange responsibility of carrying someone’s eternity in her hands. In a moment of impulse, she decides to take her dad on one final journey – all the way to the North Pole. What follows is a darkly comic story that shifts between humour and reflection, capturing the awkward and absurd moments that sit alongside grief. A Hundred Words for Snow is a must-see piece of contemporary theatre – funny, thoughtful and bittersweet. With Violet Fendick as Rory.
