'Walls of Horror' lecture Wednesday 27 November

Straight talker, Andy Kirkpatrick and County Derry's most loved export, Niall Grimes will be performing at the Montgomery Theatre (Surrey street, Sheffield) this Wednesday (27 November) at 7.30pm.

Their lecture, entitled 'Walls of Horror' will "tell the truth and nothing like the truth" about Andy's attempt to repeat the Lafialle route on the west face of the Dru and his recent ascent of the East face of Mermoz in Patagonia. Niall will be talking about "climbs, people and flying cats from the last twelve or so months".

As anyone who has witnessed these two on stage before will testify, it really doesn't matter what they talk about, you are guaranteed a bucket load of belly laughs.

Tickets are £4.50 available at Moe's shop at the Edge, or Outside in Hathersage. You can also get them on the door, but please turn up before 7.15p.m. For more info, or to reserve tickets, contact Highgear55@hotmail.com.

Original post below. I've emailed the protagonists to check whether there are still tickets available. I'll post a news item when I know. "Andy Kirkpatrick and Nial Grimes will be performing at the Montgomery theatre (surrey street, beside the town hall),in Sheffield on the night of Wednesday the 27th of November at 7.30pm. Andy will be telling the truth and nothing like the truth about his attempt to repeat the Lafialle route on the west face of the Dru, plus his resent ascent of the East face of Mermoz in Patagonia. Grimer will be talking about climbs, people and flying cats from the last twelve or so months, including his trip to Greenland. He will not be talking about the new Stanage guide! Andy and Grimer are two of the most entertaining speakers in the UK, so the evening should be one of the lecture highlights of the year. Tickets are £4.50 and will be available at Moe’s shop at the Edge, or at Outside in Hathersage from the weekend. For more info, or to reserve tickets, contact Highgear55@hotmail.com . Reserved tickets must be picked up before 7.15pm on the night. Some tickets will be available on the door, but tickets sales have been very good already even though this is the first time it’s been advertised!"

Where's the nearest pub to the theatre? Does the theatre have one? It seems like ages since I've been into town. J

Ages since I've drunk in any of them, but there are three very close by. The Surrey and Fringe, complete with health club thumping away upstairs, the Brown Bear and a psuedo-trendy place that used to be Ye Olde Monke but is now probably called something else in a unsuccessful attempt at irony! The Globe is normally full of students and the Cossack is full of...actually I've never been in the Cossack so I wouldn't know.
