The May 09 play and Jan's one-act play dates have had to be re-arranged due to cast and hall availability issues, please note that this year's May shows will run from Tuesday to Friday. Show dates: Tues 19th May to Fri 22nd May 2009, 7.45pm start (new dates and days)
It’s 1979. Esme Allen is a well-known actress at just the moment when the West End is ceasing to offer actors a regular way of life. The visit of her young daughter, Amy, with a new boyfriend sets in train a series of events which only find their shape sixteen years later. Playwright David Hare's four-act family drama mixes love, death and the theatre in an exciting and original way. Previous productions have included Judi Dench and Felicity Kendal in the cast and have been performed at the National Theatre and on Broadway
Jan's one-act will now take place on Friday 3rd April, 8 til 10pm. This is set in the 1940's, written by Jan, from a short story by Daphne du Maurier. The cast will be chosen by Jan directly. This is for QUADS members, family and friends and there will be an American supper. There will be a small charge on the door to cover hall hire costs. The Thursday 30th July one-act play that is completely up for grabs for parts as usual is directed by Simon Carr, and is open to all QUADS members except those who are cast in the May 09 play. It's never too early to say you're interested, if so please contact Simon directly, either call or text to 07968 297335 or email theanimalarkpetshop@yahoo.com
“Perfect Family Entertainment!” “Cat’s Cradle is an unforgettable ride!”
The atomic bomb was not Dr Felix Hoenikker’s most devastating creation. When the top secret formula: ice-nine falls into the hands of his 3 dysfunctional children, a series of hilarious and improbable events lead to a rather low-key Armageddon! This is the first UK stage adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut’s seminal 1960’s novel, exploring serious themes through laughter. This classic satire on modern science, full of bizarre but all too human characters, is a perfect vehicle for Miracle’s blend of physical theatre, comedy, film and music. Cornwall’s most distinctive voice, Miracle Theatre www.miracletheatre.co.uk have been touring lively, inventive, and very popular shows across the country for almost 30 years. Newly tempted on to the Live & Local scheme, they are the gem in its crown. We’ve seen them 3 times and this is top notch theatre – boundless energy, humour, wit and inventiveness – they love the audience and the audience love them!
