Next meeting
21st November. Due to an aborted meeting last month, we are still on "Swept Away by Murder" which may spill over to November. As we have no meeting in December - we clash with the monthly meeting - we'll probably just find a one-act play to fill in.
December - please note that there will be no meeting in December.
Next: 'Trelawney of the Wells' by Arthur Wing Pinero.
'Trelawney of the Wells' by Arthur Wing Pinero.
'Trelawney of the Wells' was premiered in January 1898 in London. Set in the 1880's, it tells the story of a theatre star who attempts to give up the stage for love, but is unable to fit into conventional society.
