The venue for the lunch was the Arden Hotel which is close by the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford upon Avon.

KOI HAI'S PLANTERS LUNCH --STRATFORD UPON AVON 
 

We have to thank  Denys Shortt and Diana Owen who came up with the idea to hold a Stratford Planters Lunch.

The plans are now made and the date is August 10th 2011 at 11.30am.

The venue for lunch will be the Arden Hotel which is adjacent to the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford Upon Avon. 

The cost of the lunch will be £ 27.50 per person which will include wine.

The after lunch programme consists of a fascinating tour of the £110m redevelopment of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. (You would get to see back stage etc. Participation is totally voluntary.)

In the evening the play is Midsummer Nights Dream and tickets would be would be £36 . We  reserved 20 tickets and they have already been booked but Denys has booked another 20 on a first come first served basis

Again thanks to Denys you can have a double bed room with breakfast in the five star The Arden hotel for just £100 (this hotel is adjacent to the theatre with plenty of parking).

We are trying to find out how many folks would like to enjoy this experience or a part of it.

Please indicate your interest by e-mailing [email protected]  with the answers to the questions quoted below A.S.A.P.
