Plans are already in hand for the 30th pantomime performed by the Barkway Players. The working title is Shriek! the Musical, and our creative team are hard at work pulling together a scenario and a script. We’ll be having our annual open meeting on Wednesday 21 September at Barkway Village Hall starting at 7.45. It’s an opportunity for anyone who would like to be involved, on stage or backstage, to join our friendly group. We welcome new faces every year! You don’t have to live in Barkway, but you do need to be free for rehearsals on Wednesday evenings and, in the new year, on Sundays. It’s a great opportunity to get to know new people, especially for anyone who might be new to the area. If you can’t make the meeting but would like to be involved please contact us. We’re not asking children who would like to be in the junior cast to attend this meeting – separate arrangements will be made in due course.Key Dates (provisional at this stage - all at Barkway Village Hall):Open meeting/first rehearsal: Wednesday 21 September at 7.45Weekly rehearsals before Christmas: Wednesdays at 7.45 until 10Rehearsals after Christmas: Wednesday evenings (normally 7.45) and Sundays (normally 11am)Show dates: Friday 3 February (8pm) and Saturday 4 February (2pm and 8pm).
