But Yesterday, by Jimmie Chinn
The first half of the evening features this haunting, enigmatic play, set in the 50s and before. Prior to leaving on a journey, Robert returns to the garden of his childhood and relives moments from his past, which become mingled with the present.
The classical elements of drama are represented by the masks of tragedy and comedy, and the second half of the evening shifts us firmly into the comic realm.
Carrot, by David Tristram.
Set in the harsh world of industrial relations, the new Managing Director of an ailing manufacturer has the tricky job of trying to convince the Trade Union Representative of the need to modernise the firm to keep it in business. It is a to-and-fro of commercial reality versus principles – who will win?
Late Entry, by David Tristram
To round off the evening, this hilarious spoof explores the world of amateur drama festivals. A jaded adjudicator struggles to do justice to an actor’s incompetent performance, only to be faced with the strangest production of his career!
28-30 April
The Wychwood Players are a thriving amateur dramatics group based in the beautiful village of Shipton-under-Wychwood. We normally perform two main productions every year at the New Beaconsfield Hall, which has been our base since it first opened.
New members are warmly welcomed and are able to take part in many activities. There are numerous opportunities for involvement in stage craft, backstage work, or front of house. The only limits are those of time and energy! If you are interested in finding out more, please see our contact page.
