SUMMARY:An Evening with Charlie Walker - 'On Thin Ice' - At the Golf Club - A Literary Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:At The Hartley Wintney Golf ClubHartley Wintney Literary Festival presentsAn Evening with author Charlie Walker – ‘On Thin Ice’ \nCharlie Walker is an award-winning explorer\, author and international keynote speaker. He has travelled over 60\,000 miles by foot\, horse\, raft\, bicycle\, ski and dugout canoe\, in places as varied as the Tibetan plateau\, the Mongolian steppe\, the Congolese jungle\, the Arctic tundra\, the highlands of New Guinea and the Sahara desert. He is an elected Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society\, a Scientific Exploration Society Explorer Award winner\, and the author of Through Sand & Snow and On Roads That Echo. \nIn early 2022\, Charlie Walker set out to hike 600 miles along the frozen rivers of Siberia. He hoped to cut through the myth of the gulag and the permafrost to understand who its people are and how they reckon with their haunted past\, as well as what the future might hold for this remote corner of our world. But on 24 February\, Russia invaded Ukraine\, with devastating consequences. What had begun as an adventure swiftly descended into a paranoid nightmare\, as Walker began to suspect he was being monitored by the Russian authorities. Shortly afterwards he was arrested and imprisoned.  \nOn Thin Ice juxtaposes the harsh beauty of a Siberian winter with a thriller-like series of events that exposes the dark heart of Putin’s propaganda machine. It is both the extraordinary record of one man’s walk through the most inhospitable place on earth and a powerful insight into a deeply troubled – and troubling – nation. \nCharlie Walker’s website \nThis event is being held at the Hartley Wintney Golf Club as part of the Hartley Wintney Literary Festival. \nTickets £10 \nBook buying link \nMore Hartley Wintney Literary Festival Events

SUMMARY:An Evening with Mark Foster - 'My Double Life' - A Literary Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:Hartley Wintney Literary Festival presentsAn Evening with Mark Foster at the Victoria HallMark Foster is an English former competitive swimmer\, broadcaster and public speaker. He is a five-time Olympian\, six-time World Champion and eight-time World Record holder over a 23-year professional swimming career. Foster trains and inspires the next generation of competitive swimmers through the Mark Foster Swimming Academy and is also a spokesperson for the LGBTQ+ community\, promoting compassion\, equality and inclusion. \nIn My Double Life\, five-time Olympian\, six-time World Champion and eight-time World Record holder\, Mark Foster details his pursuit of sporting prowess and finding the freedom to live his truth. If anyone was going to come out as gay at the height of their sporting career it should have been Mark Foster – a confident\, laidback guy who does not care what anyone thinks.  \nSo how is it that it took someone like him half a lifetime to come out? How far have we really come in terms of society’s approach to homosexuality and diversity in sport? From a Jack-the-lad from Southend being expelled from one of the most prestigious schools in the country to becoming the fastest man through water on the planet and a television favourite\, Mark takes readers on his remarkable 30-year journey. Sharing both the serious and often comic tactics that enabled him to live a double life for so long and convince himself he was happy doing so. \nWhether it’s his intimate coming out conversations\, posing for a naked photo for the Elton John Aids Foundation\, glittering appearances on Strictly Come Dancing or breaking eight world records in an unprecedented 20-year career in the pool\, Mark reveals the other worldliness of being an Olympian. \nThis event is being held at the Victoria Hall as part of the first Hartley Wintney Literary Festival. \nTickets £10 \nBook buying link \nMore Hartley Wintney Literary Festival Events

SUMMARY:Literary Afternoon Tea - Miranda Malins 'The House of Cromwell' - A Literary Festival Event
DESCRIPTION:Hartley Wintney Literary Festival presentsAn Afternoon Tea\, and a glass of Prosecco with Miranda Malins at the Victoria HallMiranda is a historian specialising in the history of Oliver Cromwell\, his family and the politics of the Interregnum period following the Civil Wars. She studied at Cambridge University\, leaving with a PhD\, and has been a Trustee of the Cromwell Association for over a decade. \nTHOMAS MADE ENGLAND. OLIVER MADE BRITAIN.Within a century\, the Cromwell family produced two of the most powerful\, impactful and controversial commoners in British history. Thomas served the Tudors\, helping to forge Henry VIII’s autocratic state and the Church of England; Oliver led a revolution that executed a king\, abolished the monarchy and established a republic\, before founding a ruling dynasty. Each rose from obscurity to the very centre of power.From a Putney brewhouse to the throne and back again\, their rise was improbable\, their fall dramatic. Both changed Britain forever.In The House of Cromwell\, Miranda Malins brings these two giants blazingly to life alongside the remarkable cast of family members who shaped them – the ambitious wives and mothers\, the loyal siblings\, the scheming allies and the forgotten children whose stories illuminate everything we thought we knew about Thomas and Oliver\, and about early modern Britain itself.Ranging across two centuries of history\, from the Wars of the Roses to the Hanoverian succession\, this is history at its most intimate and most sweeping – a book to captivate everyone who loved Hilary Mantel’s Wolf Hall trilogy and who wants to go further\, deeper and wider into the world that made and unmade the Cromwells.Family mattered above all else to the Cromwells. To understand them\, we must understand that family. This is their story.Miranda’s website \nTickets £20 including Afternoon Tea and a glass of Prosecco.Booking a seat is available online.If you wish to sit with a group of friends\, the booking should be done at the same time to obtain adjacent seat numbers.Seating changes may be available up to 1 week before the event by phoning Cass or Amy in the VH Office on 01252 844876 (Mon-Thu 0900-1500 Fri 0800-1500) or email to admin.victoriahall@gmail.com This event is being held at the Victoria Hall as part of the first Hartley Wintney Literary Festival. \nBook buying link \nMore Hartley Wintney Literary Festival Events

SUMMARY:RBO Ballet: Manon
DESCRIPTION:The Royal BalletManon \nIn the seedy underbelly of 18th-century Paris\, money is king. Nothing is sacred – even love itself can be bought for the right price. A native of this hedonistic underworld\, Manon is caught between twin desires when she falls in love with the student Des Grieux. Steadfast and devoted\, he offers the possibility of an honourable life. Yet\, the riches promised by the world of Parisian society remain tempting… \nManon’s inner turmoil and struggle for survival lie at the devastating heart of Kenneth MacMillan’s 1974 adaptation of Abbé Prévost’s novel. In this signature work of The Royal Ballet\, MacMillan’s nuanced understanding of human psychology makes for an unflinching look into the moral degradation of Manon’s Paris\, while all its decadence and decay are brought to life through Jules Massenet’s score and Nicholas Georgiadis’s designs. \nTickets £18 and £12 for under 18Licensed bar (card or cash)\, with wine\, beer\, soft drinks\, tea and coffee\, run by the VHC.
