Fundraising theatre company Act IV will be joining in the fight against heart disease tomorrow evening by staging a comedy in aid of the University of Dundee's Institute of Cardiovascular Research (TICR).
The curtain will rise on Sand Castles, a light hearted seaside comedy by Bob Larbey, at 7.30pm in the Gardyne Theatre, within the University's Gardyne Road campus.
Tickets cost £8 and are available from the Central Booking Office (01382 730786). All proceeds will go to the TICR campaign to raise £3.5 million for a unique institute at Ninewells Hospital which will bring together clinical and research expertise in the fight against Scotland's number 1 killer.
£1 million has so far been raised and work on the first phase of the new institute has just begun - the creation of clinical research rooms which will allow interaction between research staff and patients. The new facilities will be completed and ready for use in February 2003.
For more information on the TICR campaign or tomorrow night's show, contact Heather on 01382 345609.
