PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
Dramatized from Jane Austen's novel by HELEN JEROME
"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." So Jane Austen sets the backdrop for her famous novel about manners and society in 19th century England, the importance of status and class and the difficulty of finding a suitable match.

AUDITION NOTICE
ITS Casting Spring ProductionAspiring actors are invited to attend an audition by the International Theatre Studio for its next major production.
'Side Effects' is another mischievous comedy by Eric Chappell of 'Rising
Damp' fame. It will be directed by Diana King; full length play.
Setting Of Play - The visitors' room of a convalescent home
Frank Cook, having been taken ill with a rare complaint, has been booked
into a private nursing home by his wife June for a week's respite. Whilst
there, he encounters the Reverend Paul Latimer who is recovering from a heart
transplant and whose odd behaviour is beginning to alarm his wife, Sarah.
The young, attractive Tracey might provide the answer. She is convinced
that the vicar's new heart belonged to her recently deceased lover Melvin, a
fairground "wall of death" rider. Could it be that Paul has taken on Melvin's
personality traits as well as his heart?
That would explain the swearing, the smoking, the drinking and the
clandestine canoodling with Tracey in the rose garden. Then again, perhaps he's
just suffering from the side effects of his medication? Frank, ever the
cantankerous sceptic, is delighted by the vicar's fall from grace, while June
does her best to rein in his detective work.
It features five characters –
Frank Cook, 50 or over;
June Cook, his wife, a few years younger;
Rev. Paul Latimer, 40 or over;
Sarah Latimer, his wife, same age;
Tracey, 20ish.
As ever, the director is prepared to be flexible over precise ages!
The audition is on Tuesday, February 10, at El Candil Bar, San Pedro, at 7.30pm for 8pm.
Newcomers – who will be most welcome – can contact Diana King (690 108 852), who is directing the play, for directions to the venue or any other issue.
Dates for the actual production are Friday, April 17, Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19, as usual at the Atalaya Park Hotel.
