31 May - 2 June 2007: The Importance of Being Earnest
As part of the Wycombe Arts Festival, Oscar Wilde's comedy masterpiece comes to the Wycombe Swan via their resident
company Tight Fit Theatre.
Jack and Algernon take on the name Ernest in order to win the hearts of their respective loves,
Gwendolen and Cecily, two young ladies who are sure
they could only love men called Ernest. When they all arrive at Jack's
country home, we have two men who claim to be “Ernest”, and two girls in
love with men named “Ernest” who aren't earnest.
Confused?
All will be answered in this delightful, witty production directed by Mark
Oldknow.
Blue Remembered Hills
Until 3rd March 2007
After the performances this week, There will be no more Blue Remembered Hills. I strongly recommend you PHONE 020 8690 0002 NOW to secure your place(s). The Studio at the Broadway is 'General Admission' so ticket holders will want to arrive early to grab their favourite seats. The bar will be open before 7.30 pm. We suggest you park in the Tesco car park or arrive by train. The theatre is only a few minutes' walk from Catford or Catford Bridge railway stations. I hope to see you there.
It is the Summer of 1943 and the adult world is a mystery to the children of the West Country. The end of the war is two years off but for these seven-year-olds it may as well be a lifetime away. Blue Remembered Hills is Dennis Potter’s acclaimed story of lost innocence. The hills and woodland of rural England are the children’s playground. Childhood loyalty and friendship are explored with all the laughter and cruelty of which children are capable until a single tragic event brings their idyll crashing to the earth. From that moment everything changes . . . forever . . .
The Wycombe Swan's resident theatre company presented Dennis Potter's extraordinarily moving play at the Wycombe Swan Town Hall Studio prior to a London run. Seven children are played by seven adults—as specified by the author—in an evening which will re-awaken the child in each of us.
