by Kirsty Smallman

Next month’s Staffordshire County Show is proving to be a record breaker even before it opens. Organisers of the event at the Staffordshire County Showground, sponsored by South Staffordshire College, have reported record breaking levels of entries for livestock.

by Rhea Alton

As soon as I saw The Mousetrap was coming to Theatre Severn I knew I had to see it.

by Dani Wozencroft

You don’t get the usual buzz of going to the theatre when it’s a matinee performance and you’re effectively watching a DVD. As I sat down to watch The Railway Children at Theatre Severn, Shrewsbury, the first thing that struck me was the lack of atmosphere – it was a big screen, not a stage, and no one clapped or […]
