PLAYS BY WRITING GROUP MEMBERS
PERFORMED AT PLAYER-PLAYWRIGHTS:

FEAR OF STRANGERS - by Alison
(Click above to read the script)

This short play was written to the brief of 'reversal of fortune' and performed (by all accounts) to rapturous applause…. And no doubt cries of "What a wonderful writer!" Just a shame I was ill with a back injury and missed my 15 minutes. (Or 7 and a half minutes, to be precise).
Alison.



MID-AIR REVALUATION - by Martyn
(Click above to read the script)

Marty

This ten-minute play was written to the brief of 'friend's reunited' and received the loudest laughs and longest applause I have ever heard at Player-Playwrights... And then a standing ovation! Not bad for a first attempt at play-writing.
Alison.



HOW NOT TO CHANGE YOUR BOYFRIEND - by Alison
(Click above to read the first 5mins of the script)

Alison

This Romantic Comedy (90 minute film) was staged with sterling performances by all the cast.
Phil, as Marlon and Denise, as Angel were particularly outstanding in this witty, well written story of a woman at her wits end who resorts to witchcraft in order to save her troubled relationship. The resulting complications and mayhem make for a hillarious romp with a brilliant climax - and (quite rightly) resulted in a thunderous applause. ...Can't wait to see it at the cinema!
Martyn.

 

GABRIEL - by Andrew
(Click above to read the script)

Andrew

This six-minute play was written to the brief of 'The Big Issue' and met with a stunned silence as the 100 or so members in the audience held their breath for the duration. ...Not one for the squeamish, but Andrew likes to cause a stir and certainly achieved his aim! Hey, drama's suposed to have an effect on you after all... Well done Andrew (and the actors) we were riveted to our seats - I loved it.
Alison.
