Twyford Drama Group prepare to Fight Them For The Beeches

Twyford Drama Group is Fighting Them On The Beeches this May

Twyford Drama Group is Fighting Them On The Beeches this May

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Twyford Drama Group’s next production, Fight Them For The Beeches, is proving to be an enjoyable creative battle both on and off stage, as all elements of this comedy-drama are being crafted to produce the best possible show.

On stage the company’s thoughtful and talented actors are spending time building a great range of eccentric characters, from a belligerent Colonel to a mystical Cassandra.

At the same time as being true individuals, they must also work together to “become the best team ever”. Cast and directors are having fun seeing the characters and their relationships come to life.

Behind the stage, other members of the group are also producing great creative work. The excellent acrylic portrait of Lord John, which will take centre stage, is breathtaking, and the ingenious secret hiding places – created especially for Beeches Manor – are sure to be a hit with the audience.

We also have an entire talented family of parents and three children who are set building and will be stage managing on the night. The cast and crew are having a great time putting this production together and we all hope the audiences will think that Beeches is a success.

We can certainly promise many twists and turns, dramatic reveals, surprises, a fight over a coat stand, a touching love story and the joys of not acting your age.

Fight Them For The Beeches is written by Twyford Drama group member Kathy Reid of Hurst, who wrote and directed the successful production End of Time, which the group performed in 2012.

Kathy has also had her plays performed in other local theatres including South Hill Park and Progress Theatre.

Tickets are now on sale for performances at 7.45pm on Thursday, May 11, Friday, May 12 and Saturday, May 13. Tickets are priced at £10 or £12.

Visit www.tywforddrama.co.uk to purchase tickets or call the box office on 0118 328 2825.
