From our Chair

In the last few weeks Cheriton Players have been asked if The MassiveTragedyof MadameBovary! is a comedic or serious play. Having been at rehearsals I can assure you all that you’re in for a real treat and lots of laughs as you enjoy this irreverent romp through provincial France in the mid 19th century, filled with mayhem, absurdity, adultery and hilarity. This retelling of the classic Flaubert tale is definitely for laughs.

Our thanks to Mark McGann for his dedicated acting workshop, a real treat for those involved. Thanks too, to the numerous people who have contributed to the production, including the loan of many props.

As I’ve said on many occasions we are always on the lookout for new members and we are thrilled to introduce Natashia Berrio, Tom Dangerfield and Jane Wilde, our newest members, who will all be entertaining you this evening. Welcome to you all and break a leg.

The Players’ year will continue apace as we plan for a rehearsed reading in conjunction with Blue Apple. LashingsofGingerBeer was performed at the Theatre Royal Winchester in January and we are pleased to be able to bring this lovely story to Cheriton. The date is yet to be confirmed so keep an eye on our social media pages and website.

As ever, thanks to all of you who come to support us. Enjoy the show and see you all again next time.
