Organisers are collective British residents in the municipality
The writer Charles Dickens will feature prominently in Javea in the coming weeks. The event was organised by the British residents’ group Javea Players and the Javea Book Circle, in collaboration with the Municipal Department of Culture, to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Dickens’ birth. From Tuesday to Saturday, every evening from 20.00 there will be English literary evenings in Javea Studio Theatre, with scenes, songs and memories of the writer’s characters.
Next Thursday, October 25th, at 20.00 Oliver Twist by Roman Polanski will be screened at the Culture Centre in the original version with subtitles in Castilian. And on Friday, at 11.30 the organisers of the Cultural anniversary are offering a theatre workshop for high school students.
During the month of November, every Thursday at 20.00 the film adaptations of Dickens stories will continue to be screened at the Culture Centre. Other activities planned for next month are an "Evening with Dickens, the journalist and writer" on Tuesday 13th at 19'45 in the Social Centre, organised by the Javea Book Circle and on Friday 23, at 20.00 the Culture Centre will host a conference entitled "The Dark Side of Dickens" by Alma Dorndorf, which will be in English with a summary in Castilian.
The programme will close in December with a small show for children in Valencian, showing part of "A Christmas Carol" on Saturday 1 at 17.00 at the Culture Centre, and with the prestigious criminologist and writer Vicente Garrido, on Friday, December 7.
