Topic: Dave was a legend and I'm going to miss him so much! When I decided to blow my nose on his tie during my emotional scene as Brenda in Cash on Delivery, he applauded my hamming it up! Infact before production he gave a me a book; 'The Art of Coarse Acting', I shall treasure this. We also swapped Lee Evans DVDs and videos (he didn't actually own a DVD player) and I shall miss discussing comedy, music and pretty much everything else with him! Without wanting to sound too gushy, I consider it a privelege to have known him. Rest in Peace Dave xxx]]> http://www.thetamaritans.org.uk/index.php?option=com_agora&Itemid=33&task=viewtopic&id=32&action=new General Discussions

Topic: Rookery Nook: Play Synopsis Gerald Popkiss has come to stay at "Rookery Nook", a house in Somerset. Gerald married Clara six weeks before, and has come to visit Clara's sister Gertrude and her husband Harold Twine who live in the area. Visiting with Gerald is his cousin Clive who has a tendency to get into trouble, especially of the female kind, something that Gerald has left behind him with his marriage. No sooner has Gerald settled in when a beautiful young lady named Rhoda Marley shows up at the house claiming that her step-father Putz has thrown her out of the house for eating wurtleberries. Since she is barefoot and soaked, Gerald lends her a pair of his pajamas and a dressing gown. According to local gossip Gertrude, Rhoda is really living in sin with Putz. Rhoda asks for Gerald's help since she has no place to go and Gerald cannot refuse a lady in distress. Putz and his dog come to the house looking for Rhoda, but is unable to get her to go back with him, with much fuming, he departs. Gerald agrees to let Rhoda stay in his room while he takes the lounge couch, but cautions that they have to be discreet for propriety's sake. Clive is aware of the situation, but when Gertrude and Harold show up, Rhoda must hide in the kitchen. She is discovered by Harold, who is sworn to silence to avoid having Gertrude telling tales to Gerald's wife Clara. Gerald swears he will explain the situation to Harold the next morning. The following morning, Harold arrives to hear the explanation, but states he has to get to the golf course to meet Admiral Juddy. Mrs. Leverett, the housekeeper, and Gertrude also arrive unbeknownst to the men, see Rhoda coming out of Gerald's bedroom and vow to tell Clara. Gerald and Clive tell Harold about Rhoda's predicament and say that Harold must help them help her because Harold's wife Gertrude spread the false rumor about Rhoda. Clive and Gerald convince Harold to get some clothes so that Rhoda can leave the house and head to London to stay with friends. They also pay off Mrs. Leverett for the whole week so she will leave them alone. While Harold is searching for clothes, the outraged Juddy arrives, saying that Harold never showed up for their golf game. Clive volunteers to drive Rhoda to London as he has developed an affection for her. Harold is forced to borrow some of Gertrude's clothes. Clara arrives after being informed by Gertrude that Gerald is cheating on her with Rhoda. A village girl named Poppy selling lifeboat flags stops by and Rhoda borrows Poppy's clothes and escapes. Clara confronts Gerald, and he opens up the bedroom to show the sweet little girl he was trying to help, only to find a brazen Poppy with no clothes on. He tries to explain about Rhoda's crazy stepfather, but when Putz arrives he is calm and courteous, and totally out of character. Poor Gerald is sunk until Rhoda shows up to thank Gerald for his help and Clive accuses Mrs. Leverett of spreading false rumors about Rhoda. Mrs. Leverett says she heard it from Gertrude. In the ensuing melee, Gerald reclaims Clara and Clive gets Rhoda.]]> http://www.thetamaritans.org.uk/index.php?option=com_agora&Itemid=33&task=viewtopic&id=11&action=new Supper Club

Topic: For those who don't know the play, here is a brief synopsis: The story is about Lettice Douffet, an expert on Elizabethan cuisine and medieval weaponry and an enthusiast of history and the theatre. She is a tour guide at Fustian House (one of the least interesting of Britain's stately homes). Lettice begins to embellish its historical past and her lecture gains theatricality and romance as it strays from the facts. Lotte Schoen, an inspector from the Preservation Trust, is not impressed or entertained by these history lessons. She fires Lettice, but gradually becomes fascinated by her unusual past, her romantic world view and her refusal to accept the mediocre. The two women forge an alliance to awaken their fellow citizens to the dreariness of modern life]]>
