Our 2009 Christmas Production was titled ‘Stocking Fillers’. Lots of fun, sketches, poems and songs to help you escape from the pressures of pre-chistmas… and not a panto character in sight!!!
Contain mild (foul) language and adult humour so parental discretion is advised.
Dramatic Productions - ‘Teechers’ by John Godber.
Teechers looks as life at a modern comprehensive school. Cynical colleagues, obstructive caretakers and naughty students all combine in a blur of quick witted and loveable characters. In John Godber’s hilarious Teechers expect the unexpected!
It is directed by Peter Nunan and produced by Sasha Paul for Dramatic Productions.

“Theatrical Viagra!”
THE NEXT PLAY…
The Blue Room is a sexy play about relationships – a daisy chain of sexual encounters. Adapted by David Hare from Schnitzler’s La Ronde, it was closed down on the opening night and the actors arrested for being too risky!
The play scrutinizes sexual morals and class, through a series of encounters between couples (shown before and after a sexual experience). By choosing characters across all levels of society, the play is also a social comment on indidelity and how sexual desire overcomes boundaries of class.
Starring – Sasha Paul, Leigh Haywood and Mark Freestone
A cheeky funny intimate piece not for the faint hearted! Contains scenes of a sexual nature and strong language. Not advisable for children!
Please come and bring as many friends as you can… and book ASAP. Call Sasha 07957 480769.
The Wednesday performance will be Sign Language Interpreted.
The Blue Room was first performed at the Donmar Warehouse, London on 10 September 1998 with Nicole Kidman and Iain Glen as actors. It was directed by Sam Mendes. The production was a commercial success and later moved to the Cort Theatre in New York (with the same cast). London critic Charles Spencer’s review for the Daily Telegraph concluded with the now iconic phrase, “It’s pure theatrical Viagra.”
Someone Else’s Husband
HEARING MEETS DEAF THEATRE IN NEW PLAY
Local writer and actress, Sasha Paul, is attempting to bridge the gap between hearing and deaf theatre in a way that does not make it an issue. ‘Someone Else’s Husband’ is a harrowing yet funny insight into the mind of a lonely woman who becomes obsessed. Although the play deals with the subject of relationships and obsessive love, it has an added dramatic quality. Mr. Jonathan Charles Westwood is deaf. The play is not about this fact. It is coincidental.
Any dialogue will be signed to the audience in B.S.L. (British Sign Language) by a female interpreter. Any scenes that are signed will have a pre-recorded voice-over, for the hearing members of the audience.
The ‘woman’ is played by Sasha herself, actress and interpreter Wendy Ebsworth MBE plays the ‘wife’, whilst deaf actor Matthew Kirby plays the ‘husband’.
A shortened version of the play previewed at the Lighthouse Poole earlier this year and was a sell out with rave reviews.
The Bournemouth Echo said
“the tension was ratcheted up minute by minute and judging by the reaction it deserves more theatre time….”
