"NOT THE MUSIC HALL, 2018" :

"Not the Music Hall 2018" was a roaring success again. Many thanks to the appreciative audiences who made it a complete sell-out and so enjoyable for us all. We made £2,500 to go towards the new Youth and Community Centre. Well done cast, back stage, technicians, bar and catering staff! These photos are just a taste of the fun (and you can see what a tasteful show it was!!!)

Have you thought about joining your local Drama Group?

We would love to welcome some new members to our group and with new neighbours in the village we would like to reach out and introduce ourselves to you. We are all amateurs who have great fun. Some of us prefer smaller parts in plays whilst others relish the lead roles. We would welcome you to come along to our readings of plays and you may decide that you would like to put yourself forward for a part.

We are currently reviewing 2 plays and the readings will be on Tuesday, February 12th in Barford Memorial Hall at 8 pm. A reading gives the group an opportunity to see how we respond to the play and to see who might be interested in taking parts. Just come along and listen to the play being read!

Play 1 - “And the bride wore” by Cheryl Bennett
A one act comedy for 10 women set in an exclusive bridal shop.

‘A young bride-to-be has an appointment at the shop to look at wedding dresses. Whilst this should be a special moment in her life, arguments and family jealousies surface much to the dismay of the shop owner’.

‘Play 2 - “A tangled web” written by BDG member Jane Scott
A one act play for four women and two men.

‘When two couples from the same village each plan an illicit weekend away, they inadvertently both book the same guest house and chaos ensues’.

Of course, there is no pressure to be on stage as there are many other roles that we hope might interest you such as:

 Back stage support including costumes, props, stage design, lighting and sound.

 Front of House which includes catering, marketing and the all important bar!
