Accrington Pals dramatisation
 

Advance notice

Oswaldtwistle Players and BBC Radio Lancashire are collaboratin to produce a radio dramatisation of the famous Accrington Pals play. It will be broadcast on 1st July which is the 90th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme.

I'm telling you now in case anyone tries to take credit for it at a later time!

Thats sounds interesting, like who?

Re: Accrington Pals dramatisation
 

Anyone! You wouldn't believe how some people try to take all the credit for other people's work sometimes!

Not paranoid, just know how some people work!

I’ve stuck it on the “To listen too” calendar. The Radio Play that is, not your paranoia :D ………:) Break a leg. Not literally………….:D

Who?

Is there a rival troop called the Oswaldtwistle Mummmers?

The Council?

The Germans?

As a member of Ossy Players, how come this is the first I have heard about it. Naughty :(

:( Don't call us we'll call you.


Perhaps they have you penned in as a friendly, French tart, with a heart of gold, or expect you to drag up as a soldier.;)

Used to play all the tarts Garinda, now afraid probably the latter boo hoo.

Sorry Katex - I've apologised by pm as well but thought a public apology necessary as well.

I set everything up with BBC Radio Lancs then went back to the committee to see if they were interested in us doing it. As producer I asked if they would have any objections if I put together the cast of the 1993 production when we did it. The rest of the committee didn't object so that's what I've done with a couple of additions to replace a few members who have sadly either passed away or simply left the society in that time.

Wasn't a deliberate slight to Katex as she's a fab actress.

You **** stirring Doug ?
S'okay Gayle, wasn't really angry .. just taken aback a little that's all. Good idea to use original cast, I think :confused:
You more than made up for it by your last remark.
P.S. Guess there 'aint any parts for ageing French tarts then ? Darn it, just my forte. :)

Re: Accrington Pals dramatisation
 

Yes,Doug, you stirring it?

Kate's my friend and it's a pretty low trick to try and play two friends against each other.
