Rehearsals are now under way for our next play which will be "The Flint Street Nativity" by Tim Firth. This promises to be an exciting play, a description of which can be found by clicking on the link at the top of this page.
A performance is always a very busy project and relies on a diverse amount of jobs and skills to make it the success that we do, from acting in the play itself to backstage work, costumes, props, scenery to selling tickets, producing programmes and front of house to name a few!.
Our last show was, "The Love Nest" written by Raymond Hopkins, a farcical comedy, with a romantic twist and plenty of laughs. A long-married couple return to the guest house where they enjoyed their honeymoon decades earlier in the hope they can rekindle the magic of their early days only to be beset with, let's say, more than they bargained for!

Our last play, 'The Ghost Train', by Arnold Ridley was a huge success with full houses every evening! A big well done to all the cast, crew and front of house who were involved and a special thank you to our dedicated directors, Peter Fisher and Grace Wells.
Our 2014 pantomime, Puss in Boots was a great success and was enjoyed by all who came to see it, adults and children alike. The show included something for everyone, adventure, romance, comedy, a dashing hero, a beautiful princess, a shapeshifting ogre and of course, a talking cat wearing boots!
