HOLLYWOOD LEGEND COMING TO DARLINGTON
Hollywood and Broadway
legend, Stefanie Powers, stars in a major new production of 84 Charing Cross
Road coming to Darlington Hippodrome from Wednesday 23 May.
Adapted from Helene Hanff's best-selling book,
84 Charing Cross Road has been delighting audiences since it's premiere in
1981. A tender and heart-warming take of transatlantic friendship, this
bittersweet comedy is based on the extraordinary true story of the remarkable
relationship that developed over 20 years between a vivacious New York writer
and a London bookseller. Through their exchange of humorous and often intimate
correspondence a snapshot of Britain from the post-war 1940's to the swinging
60's is revealed, alongside a touching human story that still resonates today.
