our chairman writes:


It is my pleasure to welcome you to our 2009 -10 season, with our unique, 'in the round style.


Opening with that classic thriller The Shop at Sly Corner, this clever play peppered with humour and fear will confound you time and time again. The Plotters of Cabbage Patch Corner awaits you in December, fun for all the family as garden creepy-crawlies do battle with each other and those 'orrible ‘oomans: Marc Camoletti, master of French farce gives us Don't Dress For Dinner, a quality farce of mirth and mayhem. This really is a tangled web. Then back to 1385 with Richard of Bordeaux to unfold the life of this controversial king.


Somerset Maugham's classic sophisticated comedy Home and Beauty is, I think, a gem. I hope you will think so too, as this marital spring unwinds, twists and turns to the very end. World authority of the Brontës, Dr Juliet Barker said 'Of all the adaptations of Wuthering Heights I've seen - film or theatre - this was the best, wonderful.'


I am pleased to say that membership and audiences continue to rise as more people come to appreciate this style of theatre; but there is still much to achieve as we move into a new phase of our development. My thanks to Mike King and the Assembly House staff for their continued co-operation.


As the saying goes, 'onwards and upwards'.


Vic Young

from our patron:


As you reach for yet another packet of tasteless 'Credit Crunch' because you are in negative equity, remember that a visit to the theatre is a nourishing and positive experience.


Good luck for the season!
