Season announcement

Hello all,

I am delighted to announce that, after a very competitive play choosing meeting last week, we now have a fabulous season lined up taking us well into 2015.
Our October 2014 show will be Arthur Miller's classic family drama, "A View From The Bridge". We welcome new director, Gareth Pert, who will be ably assisted and supported by our regular members.
This will be followed in February 2015 by "Emma". This is a return to Jane Austen country following our 2007 production of "Pride and Prejudice" and marks a welcome return to directing for Alan Wade.
Our summer 2015 blockbuster will be adapted and directed by Alison Munro, who has also been away from the stage for far too long. We will be bringing you “The Three Musketeers” which I'm sure will delight swashbucklers on stage and off.
All of this of course follows this year’s summer show, "The Man of Mode"; rehearsals start next week and we look forward to your support.

Suzie - Chair
