AS YOU LIKE IT William Shakespeare

Directed by Amanda Knott

Shakespeare’s delightful romantic comedy is brought to life in a zesty
new production by Amanda Knott.

Music and songs from two of England’s finest singer-songwriters. This duo is something special!
The vocal blend is all honey and silk and the songs melodic and evocative of all life’s ups and downs and in-betweens.
These guys have a wealth of experience to draw on and manage to make the combination of guitar and piano sound like a band!
Too good to miss.

A Double Bill of
The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gillman
and Overtones by Alice Gerstenberg

This double-bill opens the window on the lives of women from three different generations,
offering an intimate, surreal and revealing snapshot of their existence.

The Yellow Wallpaper was originally a semi-autobiographical short story,
detailing the effects of the rest cure on a young woman.
Overtones is believed to be the first example of a playwright separating the conscious from
the unconscious in the shape of a character.
How Well You Know Me! pulls the two pieces together,
creating a show that explores reality and how we perceive it.

Mar 23-24 7.30pm
£7 (no concessions)

Born in the Gardens by Peter Nichols
Creative Cow
Born in the Gardens
By Peter Nichols

Set in an ageing mock- Tudor house in Bristol in 1979, Maud and her stay- at- home son, Mo, pass their days happily together. He talks to the cat, plays his drums and concocts ridiculous cocktails for them both while she sits chatting away to the people on the telly. No amount of coaxing from Maud’s suave elder son, Hedley, and Mo’s glamorous twin sister, Queenie, will persuade the eccentric pair to lead a more normal life – even the “michael wave” is a gadget too far and part of a world neither wishes to inhabit.

This is a story set when new technology, business morality and social patterns were changing the nation’s behaviour….

Master playwright, Peter Nichols (“Privates on Parade” & “A day in the Death of Joe Egg”), reveals in his hilarious and deeply touching play that change is not always for the best and that ‘opening the cage door does not necessarily imply an escape..’

MAY 16-17 7.30pm

Tickets £10 (no concessions)
