THE idea that we're all in it together gets explored in A Different Drum.

Charitable group Riding Lights Theatre Company's play takes that idea back to the Biblical exhortation to "do unto others as you would have them do unto you".

In the blood of a flea, wrapped in a bundle of French silk, the plague arrives in the Derbyshire village of Eyam. With it comes a devastating decision.

As the entire community chooses the bold path of sacrifice, they begin to march to A Different Drum.

Starting in the 17th century the play follows a thread to the present, picking up accounts of others who have dared to break the boundaries of self-interest.

Full of life and colourful music, the play imagines how different the world could be if we responded unswervingly to that selfless call.

The venue is Tavistock Methodist Church, Chapel Street, on Saturday next week.
