The Swan Theatre Company in Yeovil presents The Tempest By William Shakespeare. Directed by Ian White. Performances run from Monday 17th - Saturday 22nd September 2018, with the show starting at 7.45pm
"On a distant island a man waits. Robbed of his position, power and wealth, his enemies have left him in isolation. But this is no ordinary man, and this no ordinary island. Prospero is a magician, able to control the very elements and bend nature to his will. When a sail appears on the horizon he creates a vast magical storm that wrecks the ship and washes his enemies up on the shore. When they wake they find themselves lost on a fantastical island where nothing is as it seems". Doors open 7:15 pm, show starts 7.45pm. TICKETS ON SALE TO THE PUBLIC FROM 27th August 2018 or email swantheatreboxoffice@gmail.com or ring the box office on 07500 37 60 31.

We contacted Dorset Highways and First Bus about the planned closure of Station road in Stalbridge and what was happening to the routes of the X10 and 58a buses, and here's what happened... Dorset Highways told us that they had informed First bus of the planned road closure and that we should contact them to find out their diversion plans, so we managed (after an hour) to get someone on the phone, who kindly went off to enquire. The result....they haven't formulated a diversion route yet but should have that sorted in the next few weeks, when they hope it will be posted on their website. So we will keep an eye out for this and let you know when we know. Fingers Crossed! 
What is going to happen to the X10 bus when Station Road in Stalbridge is closed? The short answer is that no one seems to have any idea, but Stalbridge Info is going to find out tomorrow morning (wish us luck!) by phoning Dorset (and Somerset) Highways departments and The 'latest' entity that operates the X10 service through Stalbridge. Station Road is due to be closed for 'essential' works, which is a welcome thing (it looks like a WW2 bombed airfield strip at the moment) but when the Highways dept issued their notice to say that the road would be closed 24 hours a day on weekdays, between 17th and 28th September they neglected to mention what would happen to the route of buses. There is nothing on the website for X10 either - we have spent an hour trying to find any info there. We even filled in a contact form request for information to be told after filling in that our request would be handled speedily, within the next 14 days or so. Not good enough! we here you cry... Anyway, to cut a long journey short, we will be on the phone on your behalf tomorrow morning, trying to find out what will happen to your bus, and will let you know as soon as we do. Wish us luck - I think we're going to need it! If you would like to try and find out for yourselves and (please let us know) you can call Jason Loibl - Highways dept 'Site Agent', Dorset Highways on 01305 228100, or First Bus 0345 646 0707 0700-1900 Mon-Fri 0900-1700 Weekends and bank holidays.
