The Play
Once again the fearless Farndale ladies take to the stage! Enthusiasm their middle name, and with the virile support of stage-manager Gordon, the cast present a dizzying array of characters from the Dickensian favourite (and a few which aren’t!).
As some may and some may not know, the premise of the Farndale series of plays is to gently poke fun at the perceived “amateurishness” of village hall style groups, the trick being to portray bad acting in a deliberate way (the operative word here being deliberate). They are great fun to do as those who have done them before will attest. As is the Farndale tradition proceedings start off badly and go rapidly downhill from there. There are a few songs in the play, but these are limited. There is also piano accompaniment. So if anyone wants to tinkle the ivories all well and good. As far as ages are concerned these can be fairly flexible.
As ever, on the evening we will be looking for people to fulfill the all important backstage roles. If this sounds like you, see you there.
