Mary Shelley Birthday Celebration
Celebrate the legendary Mary Shelley at St Peter’s Church on her 227th birthday with two exclusive performances, just yards from her grave.
The Bournemouth Writing Festival, in collaboration with the Shelley Trust, hosts this special evening dedicated to the author of “Frankenstein.” Enjoy specially commissioned performances by Dr. Kevan Manwaring and Christy Fearn & Greg Gwyther, celebrating the life of Mary Shelley. Following the performances, participate in an engaging Q&A session hosted by Shelley Trust founder Katherine Edgar, exploring the fascinating world of this pioneering literary figure.
Set in Bournemouth’s Grade 1 listed church, where Mary Shelley is buried alongside her parents and the heart of her husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley, the event promises an evocative and memorable experience.
Taking place on Friday 30th August, from 7:30pm to 9pm, tickets start at £15, with £5 concessions available for students and those on low incomes. Buy your tickets before August 15th to receive a FREE birthday goody bag.
