Dear Film TV and Theatre buffs

Although there's usually f-all theatre stuff in this forum all that is about to change, as my play "Killing the Captain" is going to be given a rehearsed reading (where actors use scripts and there's no sets or costumes) in Brighton. To give you an idea, the play was runner-up in a playwriting competition and is about cheery things like death, war and responsibility. Here's the blurb:

KILLING THE CAPTAIN
"An anonymous war, an embattled and embittered platoon, and a commanding officer who is either crazy, suicidal, or both. In the midst of confusion and suspicion three soldiers confront their enemies, both without and within. In the fight for power, will good men still try to do what's right - even if it happens to be murder?"

The venue is the New Venture Theatre, Bedford Place, Brighton

The time and date is 7pm on Sunday 9th March (over by 8.30)

The price is £1 - a measly trifle! (doesn't go to me by the way - goes to the company reading it)

So if anyone fancies seeing me, my sister and as many friends as I can dig out of the woodwork there, I would be up for a drink both before and after the performance. No need to reserve seats, just turn up. I'll also post this in Meetings.

Sounds great! Best of luck and hugs from me.

And you've reminded me that I've been to theatre type shenanigans no more than five times in my entire life. I really should do something about that.

Oooh. Savoury. I would, in all honesty, love to do this, but trains back from Brighton to Southampton are heartless and cruel on a Sunday night. If only...
