SUMMARY:Peace in our Time
DESCRIPTION:Written By: Noel Coward \nCreative Team: Presented by Stirling Players\nDirected by Geoff Brittain \n\nPeace in Our Time is a two-act play written in 1946 by Noël Coward. \nIt is a work of alternative history\, focusing on a group of Londoners in a pub close to Sloane Square\, after Nazi Germany has won the Battle of Britain and successfully invaded and occupied the United Kingdom.\nThe setting is the saloon bar of a London public house called The Shy Gazelle\, somewhere between Knightsbridge and Sloane Square. The time is November 1940. Britain has been conquered and occupied by Nazi Germany. The Shattock family run the Shy Gazelle\, with a clientele mostly of locals. The latter are in general ordinary British people\, resentful of the German occupation but\, to varying degrees\, resigned to it.\nThe play is unusual for its sombre tone\, being considerably darker than the comedic approach of most of Coward’s plays\, and takes inspiration from the real-life sufferings of French citizens during the German occupation of France. \n\nInformation Session: \n\nAudition Information: https://www.trybooking.com/CZFYJ \n\n\n\nAudition Information #:0\n\n\nDate:\n22/03/2025\n\n\nTime From – Time to:\n0930 – 1630\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:0\n\n\nRole Name:\nAlma Broughton\n\n\nGender:\nFemale\n\n\nStage Age:\n35\n\n\nRole Information:\nwell-dressed talkative woman\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:1\n\n\nRole Information:\nPublican – an amiable\, gregarious man.
