Next Production
Somebody Else's Smile,
was originally broadcast on the BBC in 1978, and we have been
exceptionally fortunate to be given permission by the writer, Elizabeth
Kay, to bring this wonderful script back to life. The plot revolves
around the residents of a geriatric home, and the efforts of the staff
to give a good impression to potential philanthropists whilst
simultaneously attempting to rehearse the residents for an in-house
production of "The Wizard of Oz." Somebody Else's Smile is now ready to listen to here. Meanwhile, a second play is in the course of production, and we hope to be able to bring this to you very shortly. Sacred Heart,
by Duncan Turner, is set in a Catholic boarding school for boys.
Turmoil ensues when one student decides to turn his back on
Catholicism, and instead follow the religion of the ancient Aztecs,
convincing several of his classmates to do likewise. The staff are not
convinced that the customs and rituals associated with this belief
system are exactly in keeping with the ethos of the school. Please
note that these plays have been / are being recorded under strict
social distancing rules that adhere faithfully to government
restrictions as they apply from time to time. To make sure that you receive details of this and
all upcoming productions, please register for our e-mail updates service. Better
still, why not get involved in the production, either on stage or
behind the scenes. Become a member (membership costs just £5 per year)
