October’s session began with the concluding act of Glen Wilson’s engaging play ‘Dear Venus’. A cross between ‘Dimboola’ meets ‘I Dream of Jeannnie’, ‘Dear Venus’ ended ‘happily ever after’ with Benji heading off to the bedroom with Venus!
The session also included a poetry reading, with each person reading a poem with personal meaning to them. Poetry chosen ranged from classic poems from school days, to a poem about Ned’s less well known sister Margaret Kelly, to Claire’s recital of an intriguing poem from her childhood.
A new subcommittee of Jenny Macdonald, Jenny Sawyer and Shirley Swallow met recently to select our next play – their first choice, ‘A Murder has been arranged’ by Emlyn Williams, followed by ‘84 Charing Cross Road’ by Helen Hanff.
Our creative director, Keith Rogers, has been unwell and wasn’t able to attend in October – we do hope he will be able to join us again next month.
