NEW - Milton Keynes Theatre (Theatre MK) offers

 

 

Milton Keynes Theatre is delighted to offer you discounted tickets for

 

HENRY V

 By William Shakespeare

 

Led by director Edward Hall, internationally acclaimed all- male company Propeller is renowned for combining a rigorous approach to the text with an exciting, physical aesthetic. Propeller engages its audience’s imagination and brings fresh understanding to classic plays.

Henry V tells the tale of the greatest British warrior in English folklore.

In a time when nationalism is at its most dangerous and exciting and increasing numbers of British servicemen and women are seeing active service, Propeller brings its own unique take on one of Shakespeare’s most famous plays.

 

Bring a group of 4 or more and you can have the best available tickets for only £15 each!

 This discount applies to the following performances:

Tue 29 Nov – Thu 1 Dec 7.30pm, Sat 3 December at 2.30pm

You could make a saving of up to £14 per ticket!

 

 

Tickets subject to availability. No retrospective discounts given.

Tree Planting event 'Tree O'clock' Guiness World Record attempt

The tree planting event on 5th December was a great success, Friends Of The Park Shenley Brook End got together with Milton Keynes Council last Saturday to plant 22 trees as part of the BBC’s Breathing Spaces attempt to break the existing world record for trees planted by hand by any number of people within a single hour. Local residents planted varieties of Alder, Birch and Hornbeam together with several hundred bulbs. Funding of the trees came from the Council and Shenley Brook End Parish Council. The Friends Of The Park intend this to be the start of a number of activities aimed at improving the park and eventually achieving Blue Flag Status.   A new Friends Of The Park web page will be created shortly, please check back for updates.
