Blue Plaques...... Success!
Working in conjunction with the Canterbury Commemoration Society, Jane Jones, has succeeded in her quest to have a blue plaque commemorating Freddie Laker. Jane wrote and directed our Production 'Freddie Laker' - The Forgotten Man.
Of the five plaques revealed in May the two most popular with the public were Freddie Laker and Mary Moders, who was the subject of our 2023 production ‘The Crafty Whore’.
