Congratulations Matthew and Handley

Well, once again panto has been and gone and we are now well into 2012. A Very Happy New Year to all EADS members and thank you for all your hard work over the last few months. Last year the Committee decided to make an award to the person you chose who gave that little bit extra during the pantomime rehearsals. The winner, with several votes, was Matthew Campbell who was chosen for his smiling enthusiasm and ability to learn all the words and dance moves so quickly. He inspired us all. The runner up, was Handley Barrett for his tireless encouragement to all the newcomers, not to mention, his great performance on stage. Well done, both of you!

Auditions for The Spring Play

The Spring Play is ‘Walk into my Parlour’, to be directed by Jimmy Cameron, a three act Scottish Farce set in Edinburgh in the 1780’s. Auditions will be held on Tuesday 31st January and Thursday 2nd February at 7.30pm in The Sheddie. There are nine roles to be cast, five male and four female. The dialect is broad, Scots apart from an ‘English Gentleman’ who has trouble keeping up with what is going on. All members are welcome to come along, although only those over the age of 18 will be able to audition.

Workshops

There will be an ‘Improvisation’ Workshop for all members on Tuesday 21st February from 7pm ’till 9.30pm. Hopefully, this will be the first of many workshops to help you to prepare for a future in drama as well as this year’s pantomime.
