Curtain up… on Sweet Delilah

Leave a comment

Tonight, after many long hours, we reach opening night on The Sweet Delilah Swim Club. It’s a wonderful show – warm, funny and just what we all need.

We had to schedule it for this week, despite it being a Bank Holiday week and, of course the important 80th VE Day events. As a result, we still have some tickets left – last minute bookings are accepted – especially for Saturday night, so please ensure you or your friends come along to support local theatre for just £10 including refreshments and great entertainment.

Last night’s Dress Rehearsal had everyone fired up and ready to go live tonight. Here’s a little teaser video from our rehearsal night…

Our next production might be in a Bank Holiday week, and yes it’s the 80th VE Day celebrations the same week but if you can be free on Thursday, Friday or Saturday (8th, 9th and 10th May) why not come along and have a good laugh and support our efforts for just £10 a seat?

At the moment we still have lots of seats available, especially on Saturday night, and we want to make sure that you don’t miss out on your one and only chance to see us perform The Sweet Delilah Swim Club.

If you haven’t already booked, why not book now?

And here’s our little promo from rehearsals – just click to watch. Sadly our small budget did not extend to actually visiting North Carolina for the photo shoot!

About The Sweet Delilah Swim Club

For this play we return to the US. The Sweet Delilah beach cottage, sitting on the sunny Outer Banks of the North Carolina coast, is where five women meet up every summer.

Sheree, Dinah, Lexie, Vernadette and Jeri-Neal made lifelong friendships at their college swim team and still meet up every year.

The play takes us through four of those summer weekend visits spread over three decades and the changes and events of their lives and their lifelong friendship. Another warm and funny play from the writing team of Jones Hope and Wooten.

Don’t miss out – support local theatre and have an enjoyable night for only £10 including refreshments.

Rehearsals for The Sweet Delilah Swim Club continue and with just a month to go everyone is looking forward to our next production going live onstage – well, perhaps with a little trepidation from the cast..

It’s at this stage we are introducing all the music and sound effects and props as the actors leave their scripts to one side, and the rest of the production team are thinking about arrangements backstage and the constructions and decor of the set.

Seats are selling well and there are seats available every night at present, though Thursday and Saturday have the best choices available.

The Sweet Delilah Swim Club

By the same writers as our popular 2017 production of The Hallelujah Girls (Jones-Hope-Wooten) this light hearted and touching comedy is the story of five women, whose friendship began decades ago on their college swim team.

The play takes us through four summer weekend visits over those decades to the Sweet Delilah beach cottage on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
