From schools of thought to breeds of apple, you’ll be glad to be in Cambridge this October

1: Political Dramas

Frost/Nixon

Various Dates

This October both the Arts and the Cambridge University Amateur Dramatics Society are performing political Dramas set in the US.

At the ADC theatre, for the history fans amongst you the CUADS are performing a rendition of Frost/Nixon. The award winning play is about an investigative reporter and his interview with the disgraced former president. The film adaptation was spectacular, now here’s your chance to see it live!

Not only that but the Arts is putting on a play entitled “The Best Man” about a fictionalised 2016 election, in which the lines between conviction and corruption are blurred beyond recognition.

2: The Botanical Garden’s Apple Day

You may recollect the Botanical Garden from its controversial appearance in this month’s word on the street. But did you know that they are hosting the largest annual Apple Day in the region‽ Well you do now!

The apple day will feature an apple tasting, tips on how to grow the best apples and Apple identification! What is Apple identification we hear you ask? Well if you bring 2-3 apples with leaf and stalk their experts will tell you what variety of apple it is!

That’s right, no mystery apple will fool these titans of fruit verification.

There’s Apple activities for the children and apple edibles for everyone!

Moving on however,  jamais-vu has commandeered the apple neurone in our  brains after this paragraph.
