Author Evening at the Village Hall 28 October 2023
Sea Change
Author Evening
Saturday 28th October Doors open 7 for 7.30 start
Hindolveston Village Hall
A good number of us in the village have fallen in love with a slim volume, a true story set locally, called Sea Change.
In their ancient London taxi, Jessica Streeting’s family move east, deep into the Norfolk countryside. It is 1975 and her father, the Reverend Paul Farnham, has a new position at the church of St Agnes, Cawston. Here they find a world, just up the road from Hindolveston, populated by people who embody both the old and new ways of rural life.
In this extraordinary and beautiful book Jessica revisits her happy village childhood and addresses the grief suppressed from the moment her father was ripped from the community.
Jessica, who is warm and funny, is kindly coming to the village hall to talk about the book and her experiences.
The evening will be £5, the bar will be open and pork pies included (plus a veggie option). If you want to read Sea Change before coming along it’s available from the usual places, plus local bookshops. Jess will be happy to sign copies and there will be an opportunity to ask questions.

Norfolk and Norwich Festival Comes to Hindolveston 13 May 2023
HINDOLVESTON VILLAGE HALL
“THE REST OF OUR LIVES”
SATURDAY MAY 13thDoors open 7pm – Show 7:30pm
Licenced bar, cool ices, posh pop, filter coffee.Tickets: £12.00 (Concessions: £10.80, Under 18s: £7.50)
To book call 01263 860257As part of the NORFOLK & NORWICH FESTIVAL 2023 – this year the Festival is reaching out and putting on performances in Village Halls throughout Norfolk, and Hindolveston Village Hall has been chosen as the first participant in this scheme.
The first show is “The Rest Of Our Lives”, a dance/theatre show by two performers, Jo Fong & George Orange.
Hopefully hopeful – “The Rest of Our Lives” is a cabaret of life and near death. Two middle-aged lives in an eclectic, spontaneous, predictable and random decline. A joyful dose of dance, circus and games. Jo is an old dancer, George an old clown. International artists with 100 years of life experience between them, armed with a soundtrack of floor-fillers, a book of raffle tickets and a sprinkling of eco-friendly optimism. Joyful, celebratory and hilarious. “Whatever your age, it will make you very happy indeed” – Lyn GardnerBecause of the layout of seating for the show, tickets are very limited – so please book early

THE QUIET GIRL (Gaelic – English subtitles)
Set in rural Ireland in 1981, this Oscar-nominated film tells the story of a young girl Cáit, who is sent away for the summer from her dysfunctional family to live with “her mother’s people”, Seán and Eibhlín, a middle-aged couple she has never met. Slowly, in their care, Cáit blossoms and discovers a new way of living – but in this house where affection grows, and where there are meant to be no secrets, she discovers one. “A deeply moving tale… already feels like a classic. It is a jewel.” – The GuardianApril 15th
THE RAILWAY CHILDREN RETURN
The follow-up to the classic family favourite film ‘The Railway Children’. This time, it’s 1944 and Bobbie (Jenny Agutter), one of the original Railway Children but by now a grandmother, welcomes a group of Mancunian evacuees to her home in Yorkshire. Rambling about the countryside, they encounter a young African-American GI who is hiding from the authorities. Will they help him to stay hidden? Like the heart-warming original 1970 film, this is engaging and entertaining, big-hearted, warm and funny, winningly played by its fresh cast.
