February 6 OUR NODA GROUP 2011
An evening on what they learned at summer school.

February 13 THE WEEKEND by Michael Palin a play reading
Faced with a family gathering, world-weary Stephen does his best to be difficult. When his daughter & her dreary husband, Alan, their precocious teenager daughter &, not least, the dog, come to stay for the weekend, it's enough to make him reach for the whiskey & for the sarcasm. The climax arrives on Saturday night when his patient wife, Virginia, lays on a dinner party & the chiropodist comes too. In his first play, The weekend, Michael Palin takes a look at family values, which is not only very funny, but also has its darker side.

February 20 FESTEN by David Eldridge a play reading
Helga is 60. It is a time of celebration. A time for the family to gather & smoothe over the cracks left by the suicide of Linda, twin sister to Christian. As Helga's son, Christian will raise the first toast. Confined within the family house, the guests are rocked by the revelations that pierce & destroy the veneer of middle-class respectability.
"A play which may shock & not for the faint-hearted, one which may expose an audience to a theatrical world they are not familiar with." MYSTERIOUS!

February 27 BUTTERFLIES ARE FREE By Leonard Gershe a play reading

Don finally decides to take his own apartment in Manhatten & pursue his songwriting ambitions. When she meets his kooky neighbour, sexy actress Jill, Mrs. Baker's controlling instincts go into overdrive with hilariously touching results.
