This will be a reading and casting for our next production, Sheila's Island.
The venue and exact timing of the production have yet to be confirmed, as the Pump House Theatre is currently undergoing major renovation.
Tuesday 22 September at 7.45 p.m.
Sheila's Island by Tim Firth
Synopsis
The all-female version of the play Neville’s Island, Sheila’s Island sees four out-of-condition, middle-aged businesswomen set off on a team building exercise and succeed in becoming the first people ever to get shipwrecked on an island in the Lake District. Bound in fog, menaced by wildlife and cut off from the world, this perfunctory middle-class exercise turns into a carnival of recriminations, French cricket and sausages. What should have been a bonding process for Denise, Julie, Fay and Sheila turns into a muddy, bloody fight for survival. Because when night settles in, strange things happen out in the wilds. And what took place on Sheila’s Island that foggy November weekend none of this particular middle-management team would ever forget.
Cast - Four Women
Both at Carpenders Park Community Hall, Gibbs Couch, Carpenders Park, WD19 5EF
All welcome!
