The Merlin theatre is delighted to welcome back to Frome, the brilliant On A Role Theatre. This professional touring company, set up and run by arts consultant, after-dinner speaker, director and writer Chris Jaeger MBE, brings its new play "Mrs Churchill - My LIfe With Winston" to town, asking the question - is it true, as they say, that behind every great man, there is a great woman? Was this true in Churchill's case?

Clementine, was Churchill's wife for 56 years? Did he bully her like he did so many other people? Was he as irascible at home as he was in the House of Commons? Given his strength and conviction, did Clementine have any influence on him at all? Or was she 'the little lady at home'? Winston famously said, "My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me." So what was it like, being the wife of one of the most famous Englishmen who has ever lived?

Liz Grand carries this superb one-woman show in a moving, sensitive and informative portrayal of Clementine Churchill, offering answers and insight into the personal life behind the public images, in this stunning new play.

Liz Grand's previously brought the highly engaging, gripping 'Where Is Mrs. Christie?' to Frome and this seasoned, stylish actor is sure to captivate audiences again when she takes to the Merlin Theatre stage at the end of January.

Tickets for "Mrs Churchill - My LIfe With Winston" on Saturday 28th January, can be bought online, in person or by phone through The Merlin Theatre.
