Between 24th and 26th November, we have put on four performances of ‘Trouble in Pantoland’. It has all been great fun, with each of the evening and Saturday sessions well attended and received. If you’d like to see a set of photos taken at the dress rehearsal, then please see our ‘Past Productions’ page.
Something’s amiss with the Wicked Queen’s Magic Mirror, Cinderella has been jilted at the altar by Prince Charming, all the Heroes have disappeared. Who can save Pantoland from Evil Wizard ‘He Whose Name Nobody Can Remember’? Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty or maybe a Frog?!
Do come along and see the new panto on 24th to 26th November. Click on the leaflet above, to enlarge for further details.
We have now chosen and cast our next production, rehearsals start in September. We look forward to seeing you there, and of course you could still get involved backstage or with refreshments.
” Trouble in Pantoland”
by Sharon Hulm
Thurs 24th – Sat 26th November
Our next production will be a Pantomime, we don’t yet know which, but we do know the dates. There are going to be plenty of roles both on and off stage, so do get in touch if you would like to be involved and save those dates in your diaries.
Our Spring production will be Michael Palin’s “The Weekend” a contemporary comedy :
When his daughter Diana and her dreary husband Alan, precocious child Charlotte and incontinent dog Pippa come for the weekend, Stephen Febble does his best to be difficult, reaching for the Whisky bottle with sarcasm. Things climax Saturday night when his wife Virginia gives a dinner party and the Podiatrist comes too!
This autumn’s production is called ‘The Inaccurate Conception’ and is a comic look at The Nativity, as performed by seven year olds! It will take place on 26th to the 28th of November 2015, at Westbury-on-Trym Methodist Church Hall.
Young teacher Celia Whibley is ‘challenged’ to direct the Primary School Nativity Play. Unruly Class 3C is the least of her troubles. The real obstacles are unhelpful staff bent on sabotage. Will this ‘personal development opportunity’ be worth the struggle?
Teachers, parents and seven-year olds alike, are played by adults in this comic portrayal of everybody’s first brush with theatre: the School Nativity Play.
Charade Drama are proud to announce that this year’s spring production will be ‘Three Carols and a Bread Pudding’ and will take place at the end of March. Please click the flyer for more details.
Charade will be performing a set of one act comedy plays on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, 26th to 28th March. Put theses dates in your diary, details to follow!
Our November panto production of Cinderella was hard work, but a great success and enjoyed by all. Do have a look at some of the photos on the ‘Past productions’ page.
