The Viaduct Theatre will welcome back award-winning Halifax playwright Alan Stockdill, and his company Talking Stock, to perform another double bill – Give a Little Love and Godfrey’s Last Stand.

Give A Little Love provides a deep-dive into the emotions of being reunited with a childhood friend. While Give a Little Love reminisces of the ‘good old times,’ Godfrey’s Last Stand captures the importance of fulfilment of one’s lifelong dreams and living in the moment.

Two plays with seemingly opposing themes, yet both packed with touching emotions and entertainment.
