A Tomb With A View, by Norman Robbins, will replace the company’s previously planned May production of Bunkered. It will run from Wednesday 25 to Saturday 28 May 2022.

The company is keen to invite non members to the auditions which are being held on Tuesday March 22 at 7.30pm at the EPT Premises, 40 Mayfield Gardens, EH9 2BY.

Entry is via the car park at the rear of the premises. Covid protocols, including mask wearing unless auditioning, are in place.

A Tomb with a View is a comedy thriller by Norman Robbins. As the play opens, a wolf howls to the moon. In the Library, Hamilton Penworthy, solicitor, reads the will of the late departed Septimus Tomb.

The eccentric Tombs are seething. They want to know – who is Miss Ash? Why has she been left a fortune? Flora Ash, writer of romantic fiction, soon arrives with her secretary, young Peregrine. And then, mysteriously, the corpses start to pile up.

Who will survive to inherit the millions?

The show calls for ten performers, six female and four male.

Potential auditionees who are not able to make the Tuesday auditions, or who would like more information, should email the EPT secretary on secretary@ept.org.uk.
