๐Ÿฅณ Abigail's Party at The Place Theatre in Bedford


Time: 19:30

๐Ÿฅณ Step into the suburban world of 1977, where the gin flows as freely as the tension in Mike Leighโ€™s iconic dark comedy, Abigailโ€™s Party.

๐ŸŽญ ABOUT:
Beneath the veneer of polite conversation and cheese and pineapple sticks lies a simmering undercurrent of ambition, resentment, and social one-upmanship. As Beverly and her husband Laurence host a soirรฉe for their unsuspecting guestsโ€”Angela, Tony, and the anxious Sue (whose teenage daughter, Abigail, is throwing a party of her own nearby)โ€”the evening spirals into a brilliantly uncomfortable clash of class, aspiration, and ego.

A sharply observed satire of middle-class pretensions and the cracks beneath the surface, Abigailโ€™s Party is as deliciously excruciating as it is laugh-out-loud funny.

Come join us for a night of awkward encounters, passive-aggressive exchanges, and 1970s nostalgia at its finest.

๐Ÿ› Free Panacea Museum in Bedford 2025


Time: 11:00 - 17:00 Price: ยฃ0.00

๐ŸกA FREE MUSEUM IN BEDFORD- The Panacea, a beautiful Victorian House.
Discover the amazing story of the unique religious community that created its own Garden of Eden in the centre of Bedford. The museum has beautiful gardens to walk around.

โญOPEN:
Thursday - Sunday, 11am - 5pm
(last admission 4.30pm)

๐Ÿ“– SOME INTERESTING HISTORY
The Panacea Society was originally called โ€˜The Community of the Holy Ghostโ€™, and was made up mostly of women. Its leader was Mabel Barltrop โ€“ the widow of an English clergyman, and mother of four childrenโ€“ whose followers called her โ€˜Octaviaโ€™.

Octavia. The founder of the Panacea Society.

During the 1920s, followers of the Panacea Society moved to Bedford to live near Octavia. Eventually, the community was able to combine the gardens of several properties to form โ€˜the campusโ€™ โ€“ a private space between the community houses, with a chapel at its centre.

From this headquarters, the Society operated a religious organisation which reached across the world. Over two thousand people became members of the Panacea Society, in Europe, North America and many parts of the British Empire and Commonwealth.

From its beginning, the Panacea Society expected the end of the world. Society members were convinced that God would soon act to bring about a new age โ€“ a period of peace and happiness called โ€˜the Millenniumโ€™.

The Panacea Society was part of a wider religious movement of groups concerned with prophecy. The Panaceans believed that God was speaking to them through Octavia, but her followers did not believe she was the only modern prophet. Rather, they accepted a lineage of seven prophetic voices since the late 1700s โ€“ a tradition they called โ€˜the Visitationโ€™.

๐Ÿง’ FOR CHILDREN
Children trails, colouring sheets and wooden toys in the activity space in the main museum building 'Castleside'.

โ˜• FOOD AND DRINK
Tea room serving refreshments, hot & cold snacks with indoor & outdoor seating
