Antiques Roadshow expert to share wisdom at Epsom Playhouse
10:33am Friday 25th May 2012 in News By Hardeep Matharu
Antiques expert Eric Knowles will be at Epsom Playhouse
Now is your chance to meet the affable and knowledgeable Eric Knowles at a mini antiques roadshow at Epsom Playhouse.
Knowles is one of those rare individuals who is able to share his extensive knowledge of the world of antiques in a manner that is easily understood.
With over 20 years working on the BBC’s flagship programme Antiques Roadshow under his belt, he has become the friendly face of a business often shrouded in mystery.
In this Antique Antics evening, the lad from Lancashire aims to take the wraps off the antiques trade in which he has been immersed for over 30 years. The first part of the evening will be given over to what are quite often irreverent anecdotal reminiscences, ably supported by excellent images.
The second part of the evening will be devoted to the audience’s ‘treasures’ - 25 of which will have been selected by Knowles during the initial meeting and greeting session and welcome party.
The antiques ambassador is keen to assure all those bringing heirlooms that he for one will be drinking only Adam’s Ale until all are safely returned.
Antique Antics, Epsom Playhouse, Ashley Avenue, June 28, 8pm, £15, call 01372 742555, visit www.epsomplayhouse.co.uk
