Due to an unfortunate series of circumstances, I will not be directing 'Iolanthe' at Roleystone in August.
To replace the season, I may be doing Tom Stoppard's 'Travesties' in July instead.

Watch this space for an audition notice in the next couple of days.

We will need eight actors:
3 female and 5 male of varying ages, although some of the parts will be able to be cast cross-gender.

Any enquiries, please contact the Director:

PS Grant, I need a password for Roleystone!

Hook for BarbZ!

Come on Barbara, bring it on, I'm waiting for it...
Just something small along the lines of:

"But didn't the Hole do that in 1989?"

Come on...
The chin's waiting and exposed...
Hit me baby, Hit me!

Luv Paul
Who is still hurt that you didn't come up to see Elizabeth.
But then again, I didn't give you any comps, did I!

No MD and/or not enough men???

Hi Paul,

I'm curious? Is this why you had to cancel Iolanthe? Are amateur clubs destined to do all female acapella musicals (and there's only one that I know of)?

Best wishes for Travesties,
Gill

RE: No MD and/or not enough men???

Hey Gill!

The problem was finding an MD who wanted to do 'Iolanthe'!

Would have had plenty (well, enough) men
Also if I'd been doing anything but G&S I would have had a few more options.

ah, well
C'est le theatre
