"The Tempest"

by William Shakespeare

Directed & Choreographed by Rhona Mitchell

MSD complete their trilogy of Shakespeare shipwreck plays as their 30^th anniversary production. Prospero has been banished and marooned on an island with his daughter Miranda. With the help of the spirit Ariel he raises a storm at sea, bringing his enemies within his grasp. An eclectic mix of music, dance and puppetry makes for an innovative and quirky production.

Fleeman Productions present:

Blown Seed

by Charles Barron

Garidge Theatre presents:

A Month of Sundays

A comedy by Bob Larbey

In association with Samuel French Ltd.

From the pen of Bob Larbey, writer of “The Good Life” and “A Fine Romance” comes a comedy that the critics described as “a play for which the West End was a warmer and more wonderful place”. The heroes of the story are two residents of a rest home. Fighting the aging process with wit and humour, the two friends are aware that life can only be endured if treated as a comedy. Allan Dunbar and Laurence Young play the two friends in a comedy to make you laugh and cry.

The Folding Theatre Puppet Company presents

Brier Rose

A show for 5+ years old

When a King and Queen are blessed with a beautiful baby girl they throw a big

celebration. But they forget to invite one of the fairies to the dinner. When she arrives

unannounced and curses the baby girl to die, the King and Queen are heart-broken.

Based upon the Brothers Grimm version of Sleeping Beauty, Little Brier Rose is one of the most enduring stories of all time, known the world over for its message of love over adversity. The Folding Theatre Puppet Co. brings the tale magically to life in its new production.
