By Roy Clarke Directed by Matt Holland Season: 12 - 22 April 2023 Everyone’s favourite Lady of the House, Hyacinth Bucket (“It’s Boo-kay!), is at it again. While setting up her entry in the local art festival, Hyacinth learns that Emmet needs a leading lady for the murder mystery that he is directing for the local theatre group, but is shocked to discover her relatives, Daisy, Rose and Onslow are also in the play, and Daisy is playing the Duchess. Hyacinth is further horrified to discover one of her own roles in the play is the Cook, and she is expecting Councillor Mrs Debden at any moment, whom she thinks is going to appoint her to a high position in society. Desperate to hide the fact she’s playing a servant, a classic Hyacinth farce follows.

Written by Yasmina Reza
Directed by Garry Thomas Season: 14 - 23 July 2022 Winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play, God of Carnage tells of two married couples who meet for the first time shortly after their respective sons have a schoolyard fight. Michael and Veronica, whose son’s teeth were knocked out, invite Alan and Annette, whose son did the knocking, to their home to settle matters such as who will pay for new teeth. But any attempt at having a civilised discussion as to whose child is responsible for the fight, and how the parents may have influenced such destructive behaviour, quickly devolves into finger-pointing, name-calling, stomping around and throwing things. And that’s before they break out the alcohol! Cast: Wesley van Gelderen as Michael Novak Sarah Coursey as Veronice Novak Caroline Baker as Annette Raleigh Paul Johnson as Alan Raleigh
By Kip Chapman, with Todd Emmerson and Sophie Roberts
