From the Absurd to the Ridiculous
A triple bill of one-act plays
where and when
|
In Spring 2009 Woodhouse Players take you from the Absurd to the
Ridiculous.
First the absurdities of Government and the Press in new
play - Machinery of Government - as a Government announcement spirals
out of control.
Then Bear Hug by Robin French, a contemporary drama which throws a different light on the
frustrations and absurdities of growing up when your parents really don't understand you.
Finally, things get ridiculous in Last Tango in Little Grimley by
David Tristram - Little Grimley's desperate drama group are desperate
for a play that sells, and one thing sells: sex, so that's what
they're going to attempt to do. Couldn't get any more desperate than
that!

Machinery
of Government
by Sebastian Smith
|

The junior minister for health wants to make an announcement,
a big announcement, the more impressive the better. Bill, Ben
and their editor want to turn the Minister into a figure of fun,
after all fun sells more papers. Who will win? Find out in Machinery
of Government, another original play from the Woodhouse players.

Bear
Hug
by Robin French
|
| Paranoid, anxious
and alienated - and that's just how the parents feel. What about
their son Michael? He's not well and it's going to take more than
love and understanding to make him better.

Last
Tango in Little Grimley
by David Tristram
|
| Little Grimley
Amateur Dramatic Society is in trouble. The membership has dwindled
to four - the audiences aren't much bigger - and if they don't come
up with some rent money soon, they're going to be thrown out. "There's
only one thing that sells tickets these days" argues Gordon the
Chairman. "Sex!". Thus begins the chaotic and hilarious build-up
to an evening of extraordinary home-grown drama - an evening the
locals would never forget!
