On the heels of a very successful similar event last year, this year on June 15-16, the same group of local theatre companies present one-act plays for your enjoyment, the festival hosted by St Jude’s Players at St Jude’s Hall on Brighton Road, Brighton.

Theatre companies presenting plays are St Jude’s Players, Galleon Theatre Group and Deadset Theatre Company.

Plays include:
RED PEPPERS, by Noel Coward, St Jude’s Players, directed by Geoff Brittain .
Described as ‘An Interlude with Music’, it’s just that and more, as a faded song and dance husband and wife double-act go through their nightly routine of makeup and bickering.

THE LAST ACT IS A SOLO, by Robert Anderson, Galleon Theatre Group, directed again by Andrew Clark who directed last year’s critically acclaimed The Duck Variations.
Once a star, Laura Cunningham lives among costumes, props and memories. She resists family attempts to move her to where she can be cared for. In fact, she has an interview lined up with a theatre director this very day. How will it affect her life?

ROMEO-JULIET, a different take on William Shakespeare’s ROMEO AND JULIET, Deadset Theatre Company, directed by Chloe Zodrow.
The adults are off fighting. The young people are left to dream. For Romeo, adulthood only promises war. For Juliet, adulthood only promises marriage. How long can they hold this off? How long until their dreams become lies? When will passion become violence?

Three one-act plays at each performance.
Food and beverages available one hour prior to each performance.

Bookings are open. Be quick.
