The Prime Minister and the Chancellor are preparing a severely
puritanical Budget, taxing Gambling, Night Clubs and even BingoHalls out o existence. But on the eventul aternoon beore its
presentation shocks are in store. The act that a total stranger
is intent on removing most o her clothes in the PMs oce and
that her dress ends up on his wie, who is determined to extract as
much blood as possible rom anybody she meets, is bad enough,but when two other ladies also appear in a somewhat less than
ully clothed state and declarations are made that question the
PMs suitability at such a delicate time, then the ensuing mess
needs to be handled with tact and diplomacy. Who better than
the Prime Ministers ever attentive PPS? Unortunately he has apersonal private crisis o his own!

DOUBLE BILLAfTerPlAyBy Brian Friel
THe BeArBy Brian Friel
Directed by Ann Brooks
Monday 23 to Saturday 28
September 2013 at 7.30pm
AfTerPlAyCharacters from Uncle Vanya meet 20 years on
Brian Friels one-act play takes two Chekhov characters and has
them meet up twenty years ater the original plays are over. Sonya,
Uncle Vanyas devoted niece, and Andrey, the intellectual but
henpecked brother rom The Three Sisters meet in a Moscow caand exchange stories. Each weaves a antasy tale o what lie should
have been, but while Andrey quickly admits that he is only dreaming
o what might have been, Sonya clings to the hope that her antasies
may still come to pass. The play is a brilliant, poignant and at times
humorous invention taking us into the later lives o these two
characters.
An autumnal, middle-aged idyll, a little gem ofa piece. Daily Mirror
THe BeArAterplay will be accompanied by Chekhovs classic one-act comedy.
It was described as a joke and a vaudeville sketch by Chekhov
himsel. The Bear was written to amuse and entertain us briey, this
bravura piece shows three characters, a widow, a landowner and a
servant. Their outrageous behaviour is at times hilarious.

THe GodofcArnAGeBy Yazmina Reza
Directed by Steve Smith
Monday 18 to Saturday
23 November 2013
at 7.30pm
You see...Ibelieve inthe god ofcarnage. He has ruled,
uninterruptedly, since the dawnof time.Two sets o mature, intelligent parents meet to talk over the
fght their 11 year old sons had in the local park. What promises
to be an evening characterised by careul discussion, mutualrespect and agreement switly deteriorates into bickering and
playground antics. Come and see what happens when parents
behave worse than their children.
In this internationally acclaimed, Tony award winning play,
Yasmina Reza (also author o Art) manages to combinesharp-edged comedy with a brutal dissection o bourgeois values.
The God o Carnage is that rare kind o play which provokes
uproarious laughter and deep discomort at the same time.

Twenty years beore the story starts a wicked Sorcerer tried to
usurp the good King Cole o Eggshellia. Fortunately, he was
unsuccessul and was banished, but beore he let he uttered
a curse that the Kingdom would be drained o sunlight and
happiness. The Court Magician at the time managed to suspend
the curse and trap it in a giant egg. The egg sits on the wall o the
palace and as long as it remains intact, Eggshellia is sae.
Every year the egg is celebrated by everyone. Humpty Dumpty is
guardian o the egg together with Sergeant Whizz and Private
Bang, the Kings men. Mother Hubbard, who runs the royal
bakery, and her assistant Tommy Tucker are preparing all the
ood and the populace is ready or the party. Just as the estivities
get underway, Madam Miniver makes her entrance with her
servant, Snivel. Who are they and why have they arrived at that
moment? And what is her link with the banished Sorcerer? Is the
egg about to all and release the curse?
All will be revealed in the Talismans Annual Pantomime which, in
the tradition o previous years, includes all the un, music, magic
and spectacle that has come to make it the best in the area.
Family pantomime inthe popularTalisman tradition
