THE NUFFIELD theatre is coming over all continental next week, with the third visit from performers from its twin theatre, Rouen-based Theatre des 2 Rives.

The company will be performing a short play in French, giving you a great opportunity to brush up on your linguistic skills.

The one-woman show will be performed in the theatre's intimate and informal studio space and audiences are invited to enjoy a glass of wine while watching the show.

The one-hour darkly comic play tells the story of an American romantic novelist, Joanna Washington, who is not what she first seems.

Although the play will be performed in French, it will be accompanied by partial translation, so don't worry if you're not bilingual.

2nd - 4th February, Nuffiled Theatre, Southampton. Box office: 023 8067 1771.
