WHO'D HAVE THOUGHT IT?

  WHO’D HAVE THOUGHT IT? {4M:4F} – A COMEDY (115 mins) -  See Review The trustees of Felliscombe Museum are set to take a conference call in the local church hall in a last ditch attempt to get a grant to save their fire-damaged museum. But an argument with the Caretaker leaves their hopes in ruins in a ghastly ‘open-mic’ moment. Moreover, behind the scenes it seems that someone doesn’t want the museum to survive. When a remorseful Caretaker is led to believe that the trustees also play together as a pop group she offers them a way out – £10,000 to pass themselves off as her Dad’s defunct tribute band and play at a 30 year reunion event. A ‘Will-they-won’t-they?’ teaser tale follows as the most unlikely characters ever to comprise a rock group get drawn into pretending to be one and change their group dynamics in the process.  Stuck between a 'Rock!’ and a hard up place – you’d be surprised how far people will go to save a local museum!

LOSING THE PLOT

 LOSING THE PLOT {4M:3F + ENSEMBLE} - A MUSICAL COMEDY [ SEE REVIEW ] It all begins with a tiff over veggie beds and  illegally entered show marrows, but things quickly escalate from there. By the time proceedings draw to a breathless close two Acts later, we've uncovered money laundering, illegitimate offspring confused with illegitimate show entry produce, and obscene rockery building (and there's a phrase you don't see very often!). Not to mention singing sunflowers and a giant vegetable mistaken for a bomb!
