WEDNESDAY 30 March at 7pm: An Evening of Saki with Caledonia and Derry

Join Caledonia Skytower and Derry McMahon for some stories by Saki. Some favorites such as "The Occasional Garden" and "Louise" will be presented, along with some new ones. All stories in voice.

Who is Saki? Hector Hugh Munro (18 December 1870 – 13 November 1916), better known by the pen name Saki, was a British writer, whose witty and sometimes macabre stories satirised Edwardian society and culture. He is considered a master of the short story and is often compared to O. Henry and Dorothy Parker. His tales feature delicately drawn characters and finely judged narratives. He was influenced by Oscar Wilde, Lewis Carroll, and Kipling, and himself influenced A. A. Milne, Noël Coward, and P. G. Wodehouse. (Thank you Wikipedia).

Stories in voice, lovely refreshments will be available.
