May show - change of plan

We've had to change our plan for May due to rights issues with Brave New World, and will now present an evening of short plays instead

Despite our best endeavours it wasn't possible to get permission from the publishers of the original novel to perform an abridged version as a reading, although there might have been scope for further negotiation if time had allowed. Fortunately director Diane Mayall has come up with a selection of short plays which include comedy and also more thoughtful pieces, which we hope will together make a great evening's entertainment. In a departure from Bods usual format, an interval supper is included in the ticket price - for the Saturday matinee this will instead be afternoon tea with homemade cakes. Seating will be at tables, so it's the perfect opportunity to get together a group of your friends and book together.
