By Keith Waterhouse Directed by Heather Giles Season: 3 - 13 October 2013 Jeffrey Bernard Is Unwell centres around real-life journalist Jeffery Bernard, who wrote the "Low Life" column in The Spectator. The play's title refers to the magazine's habit of printing a one-line apology on a blank page when he was too drunk or hungover to produce the required copy and a substitute article could not be found before the deadline for publication. Its premise is that Bernard has found himself locked in overnight at his favourite public house, the Coach And Horses, and uses the occasion to share anecdotes from his life with the audience.

Directed by Melanie Camp Season: 23 November - 2 December 2006 "A hand-bag?" - never were these two words delivered in such foreboding tones as in the interview between the matrimonially hopeful Jack and the formidable Lady Bracknell. Having revealed his humble origins in a handbag abandoned at a major metropolitan railway station, will Jack ever win the hand of the lovely Gwendolen from her monstrous mother? The Elmwood Players took audiences on a "Bunburying" adventure with Oscar Wilde's hilarious comedy of manners, The Importance of Being Earnest, in which serious matters become sublimely trivial and the trivial, of grave importance. This faithful representation of Wilde's theatrical masterpiece, which is frequently described as "the wittiest play in the English language", combined beautiful handmade costumes with a simple yet exquisite set designed by Julian Southgate, evoking all the finery of Victorian England and its mannered classes.
