Romance is certainly not dead! it is very much alive and will be the main theme for a frivolous, fun evening in the Kilworth Arts Centre in Kilworth on Tuesday, 6th August at 8.30.

The light hearted presentation will bring you through the music, novels, poetry and drama that reflects our love of love and all things romantic.

If you are an avid reader of romance or love the romantic films, this night is for you. Enjoy a complimentary glass of wine and of course no evening is complete without the hint of chocolate!

Who knew that Darcy in a wet shirt would be voted the most memorable moment in TV?
