We are holding the first set of auditions for our opening Main Stage Production of:
‘Ladies in Lavender’
adapted for the stage by Shaun McKenna
at the Playhouse on
Tuesday 6th June 2017 at 7.30pm
Set in Cornwall in the mid-1930s, the play tells of two ageing spinster sisters, Ursula and Janet Widdington. Their lives are turned upside down when they discover a young man washed ashore on the beach, close to death. They nurse him back to health and discover he is a talented Polish violinist, on his way to seek a career in the USA. Despite her sister’s concerns, Ursula falls in love with Andrea.
It leads to a journey of discovery for her and a poignant ending.
Director: Barry Purves
