Spanish May fly for the Villagers
VPT mark Cinco de Mayo
By Thom Dibdin
The Village Pub Theatre return from their trip up the town with a night of new writing marking the May Day bank holiday titled, in a blinding flash of inspiration: Cinco de Mayo.
And to top up of the bill, the ever-active VPT collective are adding to their usual home baking with a pinata.
The pieces to be performed script-in-hand are all loosely based around pride and heritage. There are new names amongst the familiar writers whose plays will all be directed by Caitlin Skinner.
The actors, plays and playwrites have now been confirmed. Alan McKenzie, Jonathan Holt, Kim Gerard, Emma Hartley-Miller and Nicola Cully will be performing in:
◉ Threads by Helen Shutt,
◉ Burrito by Samuel Jameson,
◉ Saint Clarabella by Sam Siggs,
◉ Medio Pollito and The Jesus of Leith by Louise E Knowles,
◉ High Riser by Sophie Good and
◉ Eurovision-ish by James Ley.
Village Pub Theatre – Cinco de Mayo
Monday 5 May 2014, 7.30pm (doors) for 8pm.
Entry £3. Home baking available.
