Dessert | 29th April – 4th May 2019

Dessert by Oliver Cotton  

Directed by Howard James

Box Office opens 29 March

This production will be our entry in the 2019 Bromley Theatre Guild Full Length Play Festival – and will be the amateur premiere of this play.

A British financier and his wife host a lavish dinner party for their affluent American friends. The food is delicious, the conversation animated and dessert is on its way – when from one second to another, the evening takes a sinister and alarming turn…

With dark comic moments and unexpected twists, this is a powerful, thought-provoking play about wealth, greed and the lengths to which people will go to claim what’s theirs.

 

Just the Ticket | 1st – 6th July 2019

Just the Ticket by Peter Quilter

Directed by Kerry Heywood

Susan is an eccentric sixty year old who decides to celebrate her birthday by repeating a journey to Australia she made with a group of friends when she was 20.

Now she is travelling alone and carrying the excess baggage of 40 years of bittersweet experience which she recounts with wit and charm as she tells her unique story and slowly starts to write the next chapter of her life.

Bazaar and Rummage | 30th September – 5th October 2019

Bazaar and Rummage by Sue Townsend

Directed by Janet Clark

in the this heartfelt comedy, Gwenda, an ex-agoraphobic, leads a self-help group of three women who have been unable to leave their homes for a variety of reasons.  She forces them to help at a local bazaar, enlisting the support of Fliss, a trainee social-worker.

While sorting through the rummage their individual fears erupt – but calm is restored by the ever-sensible Fliss.  As they leave the hall it is apparent their agoraphobia is not cured but they have taken steps in the right direction…

 

Honeymoon Suite | 2nd-7th December 2019

Honeymoon Suite by Richard Bean

Directed by Nikki Packham

Set in the same bedroom of a Bridlington Hotel, the play focuses on three married couples.

Eddie and Irene are both 18 and spending their honeymoon there.

Tits and Izzy are in their 40’s and celebrating their 25^th Wedding anniversary there .

Whitchell and Marfleet are in their 60’s long since separated and attempting to come to an amicable divorce there.

What the audience quickly realise is that all three couples are the same people at different stages of their lives, from the young hopefuls of the 1950’s, to the seen-it-all oldies of the present day.

The Prisoner of Second Avenue | 1st – 6th October 2018

The Prisoner of Second Avenue by Neil Simon.

Directed by Wayne Sheridan.

Mel Edison lives in an average New York apartment with his loving wife Edna. He’s got an average job, average clothes, average TV… Life’s just ticking along until the day he gets fired. Money becomes scarce, opportunities for a man chasing 50 are even more scarce and all this in the midst of a 1970’s heatwave when the temperatures roaring and the economy is crashing. Left with no choice but to pace the boards of his shrinking apartment, Mel’s mind begins to fall apart and it’s up to Edna to try and keep it all together.

This fantastic Neil Simon comedy is, for the most part, a great two hander for a couple of skilled performers. It is made all the more relevant today with topics such as mental health, class divide and materialism all bubbling under the surface.

Cast

Mel Edison……. Steve Williams
Edna Edison……. Sue Williams
Harry Edison……. Alec Raemers
Pearl……. Margaret Hey
Jessie……. Jan Stockwell
Pauline……. Janet Clark
