An Evening of Two One-Act Plays 2008

Once a Catholic >

 

Directed by Brenda Joyce and Ferne Haxby

3/4th & 10/11th October 2008

 

Two by Jim Cartwright – Directed by Brenda Joyce

Two is a sharp and touching tale of a savagely bickering married couple who own a pub in the North of England & are bound together by the business.

Over the course of the night, we meet the eclectic customers and staff.  There is the little old man who still talks to his dead wife, the conning yobbo who will use all means at his disposal to get inside his girlfriend's purse; a hilarious couple blaming each other for Elvis’s death & there's the little boy looking for his dad who triggers a fragile reconciliation between the feuding landlord couple who row because tonight is the anniversary of a dark tragedy they cannot bear to discuss until now.

Darlings, You Were Wonderful! by Derek Lomas – directed by Ferne Haxby

The ambitious, untalented Amazon Theatre Group are to perform a little-known, passionate, seventeenth-century Spanish drama in a festival. Before curtain up, tensions mount.

Eve and Liz arrive flushed from motorway escapades. Judy nervously spring-cleans the dressing-room; Irene, the director, accuses her star actress, Vanessa, of having an affair with her husband and a cast member is missing.

At the final moment, Lesley, the missing member, staggers in..... well, to tell you more would give the plot away - so if you want to find out how they fared contact our box office on 01322 861001
