Playlovers are proud to present “Fleeting Treats” a one act season full of comedy and drama will be showing for three nights only at the Draper Street theatre in Floreat.
Three one act productions which each run between 20 and 45 minutes will showcase at their Playlovers home to members and the general public before entering into the ITA State One Act Drama Festival for adjudication and vying for theatrical awards along with various other community theatre groups in WA.
Indian Summer is a drama written by Lucy Maurice, directed by Dannielle Ashton. The show is set in a British Railway station café, with two girls who have twelve secrets. The girls compare their rootless lives and dream about possible escapes. Ashton says “I chose this play as I love the variety and range of different characters in the story, and grabbed the opportunity to workshop and challenge the two actors to achieve realistic performances.”
The next two productions are both written by local playwright Julia Jarel and directed by Claudette Ridout. Starkers is a comedy about love and obsession, where Fully Installed is a mix of comedy and drama revolving around love and betrayal. The late Mr Geoff Gibbs has been quoted in saying “Julia Jarel's stories are humorous exposes of the foibles of suburbia.” Ridout says Jarel’s plays are quintessentially Australian, set in the present day and focus on relationships. Starkers zooms in on the two characters and how they handle their relationship and the situations brought before them, where as Fully Installed is set in the country, where everyone knows your business except for you.”
