A confection of new theatre

Directed by Alan Glover

This show will provide three great opportunities: First, for local playwrights to see their work staged. Second, for new local directors to put theory into practice (these new directors will have attended Bob Philippe's ‘Introduction to Directing' course, July 26-27). Third, for theatre-goers to enjoy an evening of original thespian art.

Calling back to the show that formed Valley Artists, "Come To Pieces," (1998), and "Come To Bits," (2000), "ECLECTICA" will contain comedy and drama in long and short form, providing entertainment for all tastes. When asked what we should expect, Alan said, "Topical themes, thought-provoking content, and some very silly moments."

The Writers: Alan Glover, Bob Philippe, Peter McDonough, Micaela Elphick, Eve Grey, Julie Simpson, James Whitington.
