Key For Two By John Chapman and Dave Freeman

10th to 13th December 2008

Play reading 18th August 2008

When Harriet decides to supplement her flagging income by entertaining two married men on different days of the week, all is fine until her friend's marriage teeters and she arrives hotly pursued by her husband. Then irate wives bring mayhem to the hilarious Situation.

Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? By Edward Albee

11th to 14th March 2009

George, a professor of history and his wife Martha invite a younger colleague and his wife to spend the evening. What follows sees both couples torn apart, as truth and lies are exposed in a barrage of arguement and recrimination.

This classic American drama combining blistering humour with dark truths, is modern theatre at its best.

Pygmalion By George Bernard Shaw

13th to 16th May 2009

Many of you will know and have enjoyed the wonderful musical and film -"My Fair Lady". Much of its charm and wit, and of course the unforgettable characters of Henry Higgins and Eliza Doolittle, stem from this, Bernard Shaw's original play.
A brilliantly witty re-working of the classical tale of the sculptor, Pygmalion, who falls in love with his own creation, it is both a fantasy and a show case for the timeless humour of Shaw's pointed social comments.
