Bishop Auckland Theatre Society presentsOut of Focus
A comedy by Peter GordonWednesday 29 September until Saturday 2 October 7.30pm
It’s happened to all of us at some time - the dreaded overbooking situation. A wonderful mix of characters from the local community descend on the Church Hall, for a Brownie trip meeting, a badminton and table tennis tournament, auditions for the vicar's wife's new pantomime and an illustrated talk on steam locomotives, each claiming their rightful place.
Confusion reigns, can things get resolved? There is many a laugh within this cleverly crafted comedy whilst they attempt to do so.
Tickets: £6.00 / £5.00 concessions.

Empty Promotions presentsGodspell
Thursday 7 October 7.30pm
Please Note:- Due to circumstances beyond our control, this event has been cancelled.
Fresh from their performance at the Edinburgh Fringe, Empty Promotions present the 40th Anniversary UK tour of Godspell. The production itself is sticking very close to the original concept - of a working community, fun, friendships and comedy! However, there are modern day references, to appeal to all generations. A young, vibrant cast of twelve, will be available to speak to audiences during the interval and at the end of every show. (Image copyright Vikki Ellis http://www.vikkiellis.com
