Death-defying stories of hope, courage and resistance come to Harpenden next week in the hands of Roughshod Theatre Company.

Entitled IrRESISTible, the show asks the audience whether they would be brave enough to change the world.

For those with courage, conviction and enthusiasm that might be an irresistible idea, but life presents hurdles that can deter even the most determined.

IrRESISTible features five young actors who depict inspiring stories through a mix of drama, music and comedy. They range from a life-style guru whose advice goes one step too far, a desperate daughter who takes hold of her destiny and an intrepid bible smuggler who discovers hope in the darkest places.

It can be seen at the High Street Methodist Church at 7.30pm next Thursday, May 14, and Saturday, May 16.

Tickets at £7 with concessions £5 are available from the box office on 01582 766096.
