The story of two spinster sisters vying for the attention of a young Polish violinist in 1930s Cornwall, has been lovingly adapted for the stage by Shaun McKenna and what a great job he has made of it.</div>

Janet’s one true love, Peter, was killed in The Great War, and Ursula doesn’t appear to have ever been in a relationship with a man. They live quietly in a stone cottage by the sea where the biggest decision in their lives is whether to stretch to a biscuit with their nightly cocoa.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 18px;">This fiercely emotional French film from Catherine Corsini, conceived on traditional, almost classical lines: a marital tragedy. It's comparable in some ways to Scott Thomas plays Suzanne, an </span><sup style="background-color: white; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border-collapse: collapse; bottom: 0.8ex; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: 0px;"></sup><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 18px;">English-born woman married to prosperous and socially well-connected doctor Samuel in the south of France. Their children having almost grown up, Suzanne has taken it into her head to train as a physiotherapist, a plan to which Samuel has assented with ill grace, and grumbles about paying to convert an outbuilding on their property into her treatment suite. Suzanne's consciousness of how disagreeable Samuel is being about this, and how much he appears to resent the new separateness in her identity, coincides with a spark </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 18px;"> between her and the rugged Spanish workman they have hired: Ivan. The affair triggers an explosion of hate from the icily obnoxious Samuel, which in turn fosters a defiant passion in Suzanne. Scott Thomas gives an arrestingly transparent performance: at crucial moments dropping her social mask and revealing a girlish expression of shock, as if stunned by the realisation of what Ivan means to her, how much she is throwing away, and how little it matters. </span></span><br />

Duchy Ballet brings Jules Perrot's spectacular ballet, Giselle, to Hall for Cornwall. First produced in 1841, it remains one of the most popular and romantic ballets ever performed. Young, beautiful Giselle is transported to another world where she dances until dawn in order to save her beloved Albrecht.</div>

Dancers from former colony fly over to the rescue when Duchy Ballet's principals were obliged to withdraw. Natalia and Phillip arrived at the Hall at 4.30pm Wednesday after a flight and car journey from Heathrow lasting over fourteen hours. After a cup of tea, they were on stage to learn their placing in DB/s production and performed their roles of Giselle and Albrecht in the dress rehearsal which began at 7pm. Their professionalism and dedication was hugely appreciated by the youthful cast of the company who rose to the occasion and responded wholeheartedly.<br />
