REHEARSALS are well underway for Uppermill Stage Society’s October production of ‘Natural Causes’ by Eric Chappell.
With a great script and an excellent cast it’s definitely one not to miss as the society launches into their new season.
This hilarious black comedy is set around a bottle of deadly poison which suicide merchant Vincent attempts to sell to writer and philandering husband Walter Bryce to offer to Celia, his neurotic wife.
However, things take a strange turn by the time Walter’s scheming secretary and mistress, Angie, and Samaritan, Withers, have their say.
Several attempts to administer the poison to various characters results in the multiple poisoning of a rubber plant. Will Victor succeed in killing anyone?!
Make a note in your diary to see this laugh-a-minute romp at Ebenezer Congregational Church Hall, School Street, Uppermill, OL3 6HB.
The production runs from Tuesday, October 23 until Friday, October 26, nightly at 7.30pm.
Tickets (£6 Tuesday, £8 Wednesday-Friday) are available at Turners Dry Cleaners Uppermill, by calling Edith on 01457 873448 or online: ticket source.co.uk/uppermill-stage-society
It is also exciting times for the Society off the stage as they have recently appointed a new committee along with an artistic director and technical director and they have some great ideas in the pipeline for future workshops and productions.
