Strange Orchestra - June 2010
Written by Clare Phillips   
Summer Production: Strange Orchestra
by Rodney Ackland
Production 2-5 June 2010
Directed by Aidan Steer

Chelsea, early 1930s - dreadfully dissolute Vera runs her large and untidy flat as a boarding house.

Her three adult children and assorted lodgers – young, poor and uncertain of their jobs – squabble hysterically, try to write novels, make love and dance to the tune of a gramophone. Into this Bohemian household wanders the charismatic Peter, a self-styled artist destined to destroy happiness with devastating charm and the behaviour of a complete cad…

Ackland’s beautifully written tragi-comedy, directed by John Gielgud in 1932, was his first major success and a direct, subversive challenge to the ‘anyone for tennis’ drawing-room school of West End theatre.

Auditions have been held, and casting is under way. The production was fortunate to attract a lot of potential new recruits, so don't be surprised to see some new faces in the pub or at rehearsals in the coming weeks.
