Touched
a drama by Stephen Lowe

Oswaldtwistle Players
Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre
19th - 22nd October
7.30pm
Tickets £7 (concessions £6) - all tickets on Wed £5

It's set in the 100 days between VE day and VJ day. It's about the lives of the women at home as they wait for their men to return (or not!).

Mostly dramatic but has some hilarious moments in it. Really makes you think about how life was back then.

I play Betty, the youngest daughter - who has lost her love when his ship sank but finds hope with a Polish refugee.

I told you that you would advertise it on here :)

I don't think I will be able to make it, I am hoping to be at a meeting;)

Re: Touched

Not sure what you mean as I'm an only child!

Re: Touched
 

Only just 'got' this post - doh! Unless of course, the 'chair' changes the date of the meeting!

Re: Touched
 

LOL. Good look Gayle and let the best man win :p

Re: Touched
 

I'm looking Neil and I can only see the best woman around here.

Re: Touched
 

I'm looking Neil but I can only see the best woman around here! lol

Re: Touched
 

By the way, back on thread, tickets are going very well for this play but we will still have some available on the door.

We had a dress rehearsal today, as opposed to a trouser rehearsal, and it seemed to go well. We have another five rehearsals before the play opens so plenty of time - although perhaps I should be sat reading my lines instead of posting on here! lol

Re: Touched
 

Two tickets bought for Saturday's performance.:):)

Re: Touched
 

That's good, we should know it by then! lol

Re: Touched
 

Rindy mate is it a surprise for me?

Good look for Wednesday Gayle.

Re: Touched
 

Do I look like the sort of person to take another man on a date to the theatre?

Of course not.

Bachelor Rindy will be out with his Mother.

The very idea.

Re: Touched
 

Yes :D

Re: Touched
 

Well you're wrong.

Men take me to the theatre actually, and I usually end up in a box, so there.:)

Re: Touched
 

So I have heard. You fell asleep last time if I remember correctly. :)

Re: Touched
 

No, wrong again.

I've never fallen asleep in a box.;)


Change of plan. Going Friday now, sold Saturday's tickets on the blackmarket.

Re: Touched
 

Wear a sweater because the heating isn't on top form at the theatre. I'd suggest you all huddle together but our audiences aren't usually big enough to generate enough body heat.

Re: Touched
 

Can we pay on the door on Friday night? The tickets we had for Saturday we had to give away because of a prior engagement.

Re: Touched
 

Yes, no problem. If you'd have let me know I'd have just swapped them for you.

Re: Touched
 

First night over with, only three more to go.

Everything went well, knit one perl one a few times but we all ended at the same point.

If anyone does come, stick around and say hello afterwards.

Re: Touched
 

Anyone who wants a good night out, go and see this play, which has it's last night tomorrow.

It was well written and acted. The lead played by Michelle Arthur was of an outstandingly professional standard, and she was very well supported by a strong cast, with many fine performances.

It was poignant and moving, as well as having some earthy comic touches.

Very well done to all concerned.

I really enjoyed it very much, and would encourage anybody to catch the last performance tomorrow.:)

Re: Touched
 

Thank you, but I think what you were trying to say was 'what a terrific actress that Gayle Knight is', or did I read too much into your post? lol

In all seriousness, thanks for coming and I'm really glad you enjoyed it. It's always a worry when people you know are in.

Yes, Michelle is brilliant, she should be professional.

Re: Touched
 

All the cast were good. I only mentioned Michelle because I wouldn't have expected anything else but a brilliant performance from you, which you gave.

Your nude scene in the tin bath was mesmorising by the way.;)

Re: Touched
 

Ok I know it wasn't you nude in the bath, just trying to drum up trade.:)

Re: Touched
 

I thought you were trying to put people off! lol
