Today is opening night for "Anne Boleyn", performed by Sutton Amateur Dramatic Club 🎭

We are looking forward to watching it tomorrow.

"Anne narrates the play as her ghost, but the present she is haunting is the early part of James I’s reign as, fresh from Scotland where they do things very differently, he discovers more about those who came before him – Elizabeth I and, in particular, her mother Anne Boleyn."
