Murder In Play set-building update

Our set for Murder in Play is almost finished!

We had a fantastic weekend, putting together the set for our latest production and you will spot members of the cast and crew “doing their bit” in the pictures below.  There was a great team spirit and a real sense of everyone pulling together, including everyone sitting down to beans on toast for lunch (kindly provided by Ian and Glenys, with Katie as chef).

We still have furniture to add and some decorations, but the main work is done. Now the cast can enjoy opening actual doors and get used to the feel of Priorswell Manor.

Huge thanks to all the members and friends of the Society who came along to help.

 

 

Murder In Play – Nov 28 – Dec 1st 2018

“Rehearsals for Boris Smolensky’s latest production are not running as smoothly as he would like.  Tensions are running high between members of the cast and crew, while some props appear to have a mind of their own.  Could matters get any worse?
With laughs along the way, this mystery thriller will keep guessing until the very end…”
