It’s a mystery worthy of Agatha Christie: why is it that women commit far less crime than men but so often outdo them when it comes to plotting a really good murder?
Two leading experts in the art of crime writing will search for clues at Buxton International Festival’s Book Weekend in November when they debate the issue in Women Getting Away With Murder.
Jeanna de Waal, Broadway star of 'Kinky Boots' (Lauren) and 'American Idiot' (Heather), has been
cast as Diana in a new musical 'Diana, Princess of Wales' which opens in San Francisco in February.
Plans are in hand to take the show to Broadway...... but not before Jeanna has appeared in
concert to open Belper Arts Festival 2019 on 4 May.

Juliet & Romeo – A Guide to Long Life and Happy Marriage
by “Lost Dog Dance”
Juliet and Romeo - a humorous and heartfelt investigation into love, loss and longevity.
The Question is...
How many warriors does it take to create a champion? Two to be precise. Two warrior women who have courage enough to outwit an army and fly through fire.
These are the caretakers of Fionn Mac Cumhaill, the Irish champion, who owes his skills and spirit to his mighty “Aunts”.
Have you the heart and stomach to be mesmerised by this magnificent adventure? Are you ready to learn the ways of the wild?
One of Ireland’s greatest legends brought vividly to life by the delightful duo: Storyteller Maria Whatton and Musician Sarah Matthews.
