Anne Elliot fell deeply in love with a handsome young naval officer, Frederick Wentworth, at the age of nineteen. But because he had neither fortune nor rank to recommend him, Anne’s mentor and friend, Lady Russell, persuaded her to break off the engagement. Eight years later, Anne has lived to regret her decision. She never stopped loving Frederick – and when he returns from sea a Captain, she can only watch as every eligible young woman falls at his feet. Can the pair rekindle a love that was lost but not forgotten? This new adaptation was commissioned and first produced by Salisbury Playhouse in 2011.

Memories can be unreliable but Rachel is desperate to work out the truth behind hers and starts investigating: what really happened on the night a woman disappeared, could Rachel have been involved? Every day she has been commuting on the train, spying on her ex-husband and his new family – and their “perfect neighbours”. Now “perfect” Megan has disappeared and when her body is found, Rachel becomes a suspect because she was seen in the road that night, having a screaming match with her ex’s new wife. When the police come calling, Rachel’s faulty alcohol-stained memory nearly traps her – if only she could remember! Based on the psychological thriller novel by Paula Hawkins, this play will keep you guessing until its shocking end.

Join the Young Players this July for a brand-new adaptation of Shakespeare’s much-loved play, Romeo and Juliet, where you’ll find yourself in the middle of a market brawl between two households, rivals in the cut-throat world of competing coffee shops! It’s fun and energetic with all the conflict and romance you’d expect to find in this play. 

Our protagonists find themselves in a tricky situation, so Romeo goes to seek some friendly advice from “Friars”, the local barbers. The play takes a deadly turn for our lovers when an extremely important letter goes missing (rumour has it that the nurse used it to throw away her chewing gum!), leaving our piano playing hero, Romeo, with no choice other than to visit the dodgy owner of “Superdrug” to help him. 

The play reaches a devastating end but before that we’ll make sure the toe taping tunes and vibrant cast make you leave the theatre with a smile and an understanding of what the heck has just happened in the last hour and a half (yes, don’t worry, Shakespeare doesn’t have to be three hours long!) Suitable for all ages, 5 to 95.
