FUTURE PRODUCTIONS
LORD ARTHUR SAVILE’S CRIME
Paul reported that this play was almost cast. Rehearsals start on Wednesday 1st March,
It will be performed at the Wakefield Drama Festival on Wednesday 31st May and at The Lamproom 14 – 17 June 2017.

TO FILL A GAP!
It was suggested, by Bob Willerton, that we put on a ‘rehearsed reading’ of DEAD EARNEST by Mike Harding. This reading will be performed for, and by, members of Trinity Players and will form part of a social evening during the spring.

AUTUMN PLAY
“It Runs In The Family” by Ray Cooney.
John Parker is to direct this really funny farce (his words!).
It will be staged at Trinity w/c Monday 9th October 2017.

This play has a cast of twelve. Eight males and four females with a wide age range. John pointed out that three of the ‘male’ roles could be altered and be played by females. This will give him greater flexibility when casting the play.

PANTOMIME 2018
What! Already? I hear you ask. It has not yet been decided which pantomime we are going to do BUT the dates for the extravaganza have. Put them in your diary now, if you have one for next year, that is!
It will be staged over the weekends of January 12 – 14 and 19 – 21. An extra show on the second Sunday is being considered as ticket sales were so good for Sleeping Beauty.

THE SOCIAL SCENE
In addition to the upcoming ‘rehearsed reading’ social event we have booked 20 places at the CHINA COURT restaurant in Mapplewell. We will be availing ourselves of their delicious cuisine on 31st March at 7.30. Obviously places are limited. (the ’20 places’ suggests that!)

To book your place please contact Ruth (Willerton) Her phone number is 01226 288599 or email: ruth.willerton53@gmail.com

Ruth needs to know the total number of attendees by 17th March at the very latest. This wondrous social event will book up very quickly. Bookings will be taken on a first come, first served basis.
DO NOT DELAY.
(You have been warned! )

NEXT COMMITTEE MEETING
This will be held in the church hall at 7.30pm on Tuesday 4th April, unless otherwise advised.
