What's on in Howe, West

Dorset, England

Share:X / TwitterFacebookWhatsApp

Howe sits in the heart of Dorset with enough green space to make a countryman feel very much at home. There are no big venues listed here yet, but that just means you'll find everything happening within shouting distance or down the lane. It's a quiet place where the only competition is for the best seat on the village green. The local community keeps things moving with markets, fairs, and festivals that pop up without warning. You never know if there will be a quiz night at a nearby pub or a band playing in the park until you check. Near Here tracks all of it so you don't have to spend your Saturday evening scrolling through endless lists.

Sherlock Holmes & The Sign Of Four – A radio play live on stage

Online Ticket £27.60 (includes £2.60 online booking fee) Box Office Ticket £26 Bookings over £20 made through the Box Office will incur a £1 booking fee per transaction (not per ticket) Please note: all sales are final – there are no refunds or exchanges   Sherlock Holmes & The Sign Of Four By Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Adapted by Martin Parsons A radio play live on stage! Starring Colin Baker (Doctor Who, The Brothers) as Sherlock Holmes & Terry Molloy (The Archers, Davros) as Dr Watson   After their hugely successful portrayals as SHERLOCK HOLMES & DOCTOR WATSON in The Hound Of The Baskervilles, COLIN BAKER (Doctor Who, The Brothers) & TERRY MOLLOY (The Archers, Doctor Who) are back on stage in another classic adventure for the world’s only consulting detective! What has become of Captain Morstan and why does his daughter now receive a valuable pearl every year from an anonymous benefactor? What begins as a curious puzzle soon becomes a terrifying murder hunt, with the discovery of a missing fortune, a locked room and the murdered body of Bartholomew Sholto – but who committed these heinous, inexplicable crimes and how do they involve a map of the far-off Agra Fort? The case of The Sign Of Four stretches all of Sherlock Holmes’ powers of deduction in a mystery that was born in war-torn India and now stalks Victorian London, fuelled by the vengeance of a seemingly unstoppable, cut-throat band.

The Open Link is modern, bright and airy, a safe and friendly place, where you can make ’s always someone around to offer a listening ear or prayer, if you need some confidential support. Or you can use the church for a quiet moment of prayer and reflection, or to sit and ponder, or just to get a bit of peace. Pop in to grab a coffee when you are passing, or relax awhile and take your time. There’s always a warm welcome and some good company.
