Wick Theatre Company
present
Shakespeare's Richard III
directed by Bob Ryder
Lovers of Shakespeare have a treat
in store with Wick's innovative staging of Richard III, which
will be performed entirely in the round, allowing the audience
to get really close to the action.
The play is dominated by Richard the
crooked Duke of Gloucester, who has a mind as twisted as his
body. No-one around him is safe as he murders his way to
becoming king, polishing off enemies, relations, his wife and
many of his supporters....a story which is, to quote actor Sir
Ian McKellen, exciting, funny, sexy and violent.
When it comes to Shakespeare, the
hallmark of Bob Ryder's direction is always a sharp, witty and
inventive style - so come expecting a few surprises!

Southwick Opera
presents
HMS
PINAFORE
by Gilbert
& Sullivan
(adapted by
Simon Gray & James Clarke)
Director &
Conductor
Simon Gray
Join Southwick Opera aboard
the passenger liner SS PINAFORE and enjoy a delightful romp
through this G 7 S classic updated to the 1950s.
Gilbert & Sullivan wrote HMS
PINAFORE in 1878 to make fun of incompetence in high
places...130 years later, it's still with us and we can still
laugh at it - it is one of the most enduring and entertaining
shows in the G & S canon.
The plot, in brief:
aboard the SS Pinafore a hilarious tale of love, hypocrisy and
mistaken identities unravels when the captain's lovely daughter
Josephine falls in love with one of the crew. However, the
first Lord of the Admiralty, Sir Joseph Porter, steps aboard to
claim Josephine's hand for himself... or does he?

MUSIC
THEATRE 2000
present one
of the world’s best loved operas
LA BOHEME
by Puccini.
October 8th,
10th & 11th at 7.30pm
Rodolfo is a writer and his
flatmate Marcello a painter; both are struggling to make a mark
in Paris’ competitive art world. Fortunately, another mate
strikes lucky on Christmas Eve and they have enough cash for a
night on the town. Mimi from next door asks for a light for her
candle and then suffers a violent coughing fit and faints.
Rodolfo immediately falls for her and she joins the friends’
night out. Marcello has an explosive on-off affair with the
escort Musetta, while Rodolfo’s jealousy also scuppers his
relationship with Mimi. Eventually Mimi returns to Rodolfo’s
apartment; she’s very sick by now, and there are so many things
she wants to say to him. Musetta sells her earrings to buy her
medicine. But it’s too late now.
The cast for MT2000’s
production includes KAREN ORCHIN as Mimi, YVONNE PATRICK as
Musetta, TONY ADAMS as Rodolfo, DARREN JONES as Marcello,
CHRISTOPHER PARKE as Colline, WILLIAM REVELS as Schaunard and
DAVID ASHMAN as Benoit & Alcindoro. The opera is sung in Italian
and will be accompanied by a small chamber orchestra.
