Digby Diehard's Dilemma
by Gary Adams

Happiness reigns in the village of Fondleford; the delightful Daphne Daffodilly is about to marry dashing Digby Diehard, but they have reckoned without the village Squire, the foul Sir Ferdinand Fondle. He has his own plans for delicious Daphne, and will go to any lengths to achieve them.

What follows is a tale of dastardly deeds, merciless machinations and terrible treachery.

You'll gasp! You'll scream! But, above all, you'll LAUGH!


31 July - 2 August 2008, Welsh Church Hall

The Merry Wives of Windsor
by William Shakespeare

Ladies! There's a new man in town!

Sadly, he's overweight, arrogant, and thinks he's God's gift to women. He's Sir John Falstaff, and he's just arrived in Windsor.

From the moment he arrives, Sir John tips his cap at two local beauties, Alice and Meg. The fact they have husbands won't stop Sir John. Then again, nor will the fact they couldn't fancy him less. But when Alice's husband catches wind of it, he hatches a plan to take his revenge.

Shakespeare's popular comedy has been been made into a musical, a tv play and an opera, but now the Woodhouse Players put their own spin on it. Set firmly in the modern day world of next-door-neighbours, gossip and infidelity, Woodhouse invite you to spend a Summer night with those merry wives of Windsor!

Auditions for this production are on 13th and 14th May - details above.
