A CELEBRATION of one act plays can be seen at Stratford’s Bear Pit Theatre this week.
Second Thoughts Drama Group present One Four All – four plays with a mix of comedy and pathos.
In Moving On by Sarah Campbell, a surly house clearance owner and his over-enthusiastic apprentice arrive at the house of a deceased actress whose spirit remains “stuck”. Matters are complicated further when the acrimonious ex-wife visits and reveals a devastating secret. Can all four confront their pasts and move on?
An Australian drama, Dig for the Diggers by Lynn Brittney centres on the First World War and explores the DNA identification of a missing soldier after the fresh discovery of previously unknown burial pits.
Do you believe in fate? In Set in Stone by Georgina Monk, John and Evelyn aren’t certain. After hearing about the centuries-old magic of the Rollright Stones, they head there hoping to turn their lives around- but, as the years pass, are the stones magic, or is there something else at play?
A desert island spoof, All By Myself by Robert Scott is a hilarious comedy that plays with the usual desert island tropes as shipwrecked sailor Larry discovers that his island home is far more populated than he first thought.
One Four All runs from July 2 to 5.
