Following their work with South African Theatre Company K-CAP, Shining Lights present a reworking of The Roses of Eyam , which tells the remarkable and true story of a village stricken with plague, after the arrival of a contaminated box of clothing.

 It tells the tale of the villagers’ determination, under persuasions of the present and former rector, to prevent the spread of the disease at the risk of their o n lives.

 A heart-warming account of human tragedy, idealism and courage.
