Susan Date and Helen Wynter’s literary performances have acquired a devoted following over the past 6 years and Mells is delighted to welcome them to their home territory in Mells Barn on Saturday 16 October for An evening with Coleridge and the Wordsworths in Somerset, July 1797 – September 1798.
Some of the finest work of Coleridge and Wordsworth was produced during the short period they lived in Somerset. Drawing on published and unpublished work of the period and letters and reports made by later generations, extracts will include prose and a selection of their poems.
Helen Wynter trained and worked at the Central School of Speech and Drama, retiring as Senior Lecturer. Susan Date’s background is theatre, television, radio and film. She was Assistant Principal and Voice Coordinator at Guildford School of Acting.
The programme will begin at 7.00 p.m. and lasts about 2 hours, including an interval. Doors and bar will be open from 6.30 p.m. Tickets, priced £6 (to include a glass of wine), are on sale at Mells Village Shop, to which all proceeds will be given.
