Club news – 10 April

Our Next Presentation:  UNDER THE TREE

The Cramphorn Theatre, CHELMSFORD – Tuesday 23rd April @ 8PM

-2558Days -15Hours -38Minutes -51Seconds

They are in a bitter dispute with their younger neighbours over a tree shared by both houses.  Is it a beautiful piece of nature or an annoying obstruction to sunbathing?  Acute social drama, alive to the pettiness of any two sides unwilling to back down.
