Announcing our next production: Kindly Keep it Covered

The next play is going to be “Kindly Keep it Covered", by Dave Freeman and is to be directed by Janet Clark.

Roland Dickerby, formerly of the Kindly Mutual Insurance Company, runs a health farm with his wife Julia, bought with the proceeds of a hefty insurance payout on the demise of Julia's first husband, the charming rogue, Sidney. Life isn't easy for Roland; a healthy lifestyle is not exactly his cup of carrot juice, his formidable mother-in-law, Olivia keeps a very beady eye on him, and he is constantly harassed by portly guests manically in search of carbohydrates of the sweet variety. But today, fate has something extra special in store for Roland: Sidney has decided to resurrect himself and turns up at the farm, just as Vanessa, the wife of Roland's ex-boss from the Kindly Mutual, checks in for a health giving visit. A fast, furios and frantic farce.

The author Dave Freeman also wrote "A Bedfull of Foreigners" and "Key for Two" both of which we staged several years ago.

Our production will be staged at Churchdown Community Centre. All performances will start at 7.30pm on the following dates – 25th, 26th and 27th March 2015 (Wednesday, Thursday and Friday). Tickets cost £5.50 and £4.50 for concessions, they will be available after Christmas by phoning 01242 520388 (new number – same people). Please note this telephone number has a Cheltenham STD Code.

Our next production is in March 2015, but before details of that you might like to know how much money we raised for M.S. Research during our recent performances of "Love and Perfect Harmony". 

The play was written by Raymond Hopkins. Ray lives in Oxfordshire. In 1998 he started writing farcical comedies and donating his royalties to Multiple Sclerosis Research. His plays have been extremely successful in the U.K. with hundreds of productions and summer season runs. The plays are also very popular in Australia and Europe. At the present time, over thirty-one thousand pounds has been raised for M.S. research. Our production raised another £400.
