THE FLAVEL ARTS CENTRE DARTMOUTH
LIVE EVENTS
DARTMOUTH 1945 Sat 9th
August @ 2.30pm, Thurs 21st August @ 7.30pm
How did Dartmouth look at the end of the 2nd World War? What damage had the town and residents suffered? How was local morale as the town was rebuilt? This fascinating film is made by local film producer Ian Phillips and will follow some of those changes by hearing tales remembered by Dartmouth people. There will be countless images of the way Dartmouth looked then and now. All proceeds will go towards the continuing work of the Flavel Arts Centre.

LIVE LA TRAVIATA 10th
demand that Violetta renounce Alfredo. Violetta determines to make the sacrifice and departs, leaving only a note for Alfredo. She appears at a ball in Flora’s house on the arm of an old admirer, Baron Douphol, to the fury of Alfredo. The two men play at cards; Alfredo wins consistently. Unable to persuade Violetta to go with him, Alfredo insults her and is challenged by the Baron. Violetta becomes ill and all her friends desert her, leaving her virtually penniless. Alfredo at last returns. His father has told him of Violetta’s noble renunciation and urged him to seek her forgiveness. Overjoyed at the sight of him, Violetta attempts to rise. But it is too late. As Germont and the doctor enter, Violetta dies in Alfredo’s arms.
