A Bengal Tiger raise four cubs to adulthood Friends of Museum AGM at The Grange 4th May 14.30 for 15.00 Possibly the oldest surviving building in modern Bulawayo is Dawson's Store, part of the historical centre that became The Grange Hotel. Built in the 1880s, it was a trading post run by James Dawson in the 'Whiteman's Town' next to King Lobengula's royal capital of Bulawayo [eMahlabathini]. During the Anglo-Ndebele War of 1893 most Europeans took flight in the immediate months prior to the conflict. However, two men remained, staunch friends of the King - William Filmer Usher and James Fairbairn. With the destruction of the Ndebele capital as British South Africa Company forces advanced, these two men took refuge on the roof of Dawson's store, the only substantial brick building remaining. Protected by the word of the King, there they remained until the invading forces arrived. This building, although modified in the last 126 years, remains and we will be entertained by several talks on the events and personalities involved in this and later history of this site and the SauersTown suburb. Directions:-. The Grange - northern end of Kenilworth Road, Sauers Town. For those who don't know where this is take the Victoria Falls Road, turn right at the old Portuguese Club onto Jacaranda Avenue. Cross the stream and take the second road to the left [Kenilworth]. Proceed straight to the very end where there is a gate leading off to the left with a sign The Grange. Bring chairs and refreshments. Join the Friends and Support the museum. All welcome.

Thursdays 2, 9 & 16 May at 7.00 p.m. Bodyguard Hit BBC drama 'Bodyguard' kept an average 10.4 million viewers on tenterhooks and no BBC drama has drawn a bigger audience since Doctor Who, whose Christmas Day episode i08. The six-part series (to be shown over three weeks) spotlights a British Home Secretary and the man assigned to protect her.David Budd (Richard Madden), a military veteran who fought in the Middle East, prevents a suicide bomber from blowing up a train, allowing the arrest of the terrorists who planned the attack: due to his heroic act, he's promoted to the role of bodyguard for Julia Montague (Keeley Hawes), a conservative and controversial minister whose politics stand for everything he despises. 'Bodyguard' has become the most watched BBC drama since 2008 and it is easy to see why. Clever, tense and gripping, it has provided excellent entertainment. [Independent] 'Riveting... I had to remind myself to breathe.' [The Daily Telegraph] 'Starting with a suicide bomb attack and only becoming more breathless, this was edge-of-the-seat, shush-the-family fare.' [Daily Express] Admission: $4.00 [free to Film members] Friday 3 May at 7.00 p.m. Bernstein conducts Haydn / Concert from the Theatre Antique d'Orange Bernstein's interpretations of Haydn's symphonies have consistently met with unreserved critical acclaim. He, of all conductors, possessed precisely the qualities which Haydn s music requires: grace, charm and a generous measure of wit, this last quality especially.notable in this performance of Symphony No.88. The Korean conductor-pianist Myung-Whun Chung then conducts the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France in the magical setting of the Theatre Antique in Orange. Martha Argerich and Nicholas Angelich join the orchetra for this concert-homage - which includes Saint-Saens' Organ Symphony - to its conductor of many years. 'Haydn is eternal; and to hear his music played like this with such palpable love is always a treat.' [Gramophone] 'Best performance of the Poulenc concerto for two pianos ever. The performance [of the symphony] had incredible passion, the orchestra played the music brilliantly.' [Amazon] Admission: $4.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Friday 10 May at 7.00 p.m. John Cranko's Onegin - Ballet to music by Tchaikovsky: John Cranko s mastery of the art of the pas de deux finds its climax in Onegin, one of the most successful full length ballets of the 20th century. Set to sweeping music by Tchaikovsky, it tells Pushkin s tragic love story of the world-weary aristocrat Onegin and the naive country girl Tatiana in a superbly nuanced way. 'Onegin is so good, that it can easily hold its own against any Broadway show!' [Newsday] 'A hugely enjoyable performance of what many see as John Cranko s masterpiece.' [MusicWeb International] 'John Cranko's Onegin is one of the great ballerina vehicles.'
