FOLLOWING the huge success of previous tours Great Expectations and Les Miserables, Hotbuckle Productions present a new adaptation of Charles Dickens’ classic David Copperfield, which can be seen on Saturday at Ledbury's Market Theatre.

Young David Copperfield’s sheltered life with his doting mother is thrown into turmoil when she marries the ruthless and violent Mr Murdstone. Thrust into an uncaring world of poverty and hardship, David must work out who to trust if he is to grow into the man he should become. Using only five actors and their distinctive stripped back, ensemble style of theatre, master storytellers Hotbuckle tell the beloved tale of Dickens’ favourite child as only they know how.

David Copperfield is at the Market Theatre, Ledbury on Saturday at 7.30pm. To book, call 07967 517125 or visit themarkettheatre.com
