The Fall of The Peacock Throne (Wildbird)
Friday 5th September 2008 @ 7.30pm	£8.00
Based on the 1953 Iranian coup, one of the greatest unknown stories of the 20th century, which defines the West's relationship with the Middle East. This play is about power: winning it, losing it and the self justification and dishonesty of politics and economics. The play interweaves the story of events in August 1953 with Alexander the Great’s conquest of Persia in 336BC, both defining moments in the history of civilisation. The Fall of The Peacock Throne examines what it means to be one of the good guys no matter what and the games that we play with our ideals.

Glengarry Glen Ross (Emotional Tramps Theatre Company)
Thursday 2nd October 2008 @ 7.30pm	£8.00
This fantastic play, made famous by the film starring Kevin Spacey, Jack Lemmon and Al Pacino, focuses on salesmen in a real estate office. We at Emotional Tramps Theatre Company like to do things different, so we have decided to audition for an almost all female cast for this exciting play. Synopsis as follows: Shelley Levene is down on her luck, hasn't closed a deal in months and lives in the shadow of her friend yet competitor Ricki who is number one on the sales board. When the office is robbed one evening and all the Glengarry leads are stolen, everyone becomes a suspect in this snappy, fast paced play by David Mamet. Warning: This play contains very strong language. Click here for artists homepage Licenced Bar with a good selection of real ales and other bottled beers, wines, spirits, soft drinks, etc.

Offshore (Birds of Paradise)
Wednesday 8th October 2008 @ 7.30pm	£8.00
Where the land meets the water, where the urban meets the rural, Alan Wilkins' new play explores what happens when a landscape changes, when a town loses its young people and the sea loses its fish. Set in a small community in Scotland, the spotlight falls on the remote village to reveal a complex web of interdependencies - life in this rural idyll is far from easy or straightforward. A mother struggles to make ends meet running a chandlery and a whale-watching boat. Her daughter, torn between her ambitions, supporting her mother and her boyfriend, is on the verge of leaving the close-knit community in search of secure work. Then there are the two newcomers who come to live in the village and establish themselves as pillars of the community. But why have they chosen this quiet coastal town? Where does their money come from? All is not quite what it seems...! 'the most accomplished of recent attempts to wrestle with the political mindset' The Guardian on Alan Wilkins' Carthage Must be Destroyed 'memorable, subtle and bold.' The Scotsman on Birds of Paradise's Beneath You Spider Girls are Everywhere! by Kathy McKean Directed by Morven Gregor Click here for artists homepage Licenced Bar with a good selection of real ales and other bottled beers, wines, spirits, soft drinks, etc.

The Worm That Squirmed (Indigo Moon Theatre)
Saturday 18th October 2008 @ 2.00pm	£4.00
A contemporary show for children or adults alike. Indonesian rod puppets tell of a squirmy worm who causes chaos wherever he goes. Using little spoken language, this visual feast of farce crosses cultural borders in crazy pursuit of the worm. Where is he now? Watch out everybody! This show prides itself on the use of very little spoken language, relying mainly on physical movement, cross-cultural humour and its exciting musical score combined with live sound effects. It is a wonderful opportunity to see authentic West Javanese rod puppets come alive. Directed by Mark Pitman (Garlic Theatre) Performed by Anna Ingleby & Haviel Perdana Original Music composed by Haviel Perdana Duration: 50-60 mins. Click here for artists homepage

Home to Neverland - A Window on J M Barrie (Splinters Productions)
Saturday 25th October 2008 @ 7.30pm	£8.00
From Neverland to the Scottish glens, from society drawing-rooms to couthy firesides, Barrie is the master storyteller. But beneath the fantasies, social satire and humour, there is an enigma. The lad from Kirriemuir, the great playwright who, elected as Rector of St. Andrew’s University, delivered his famous speech on ‘Courage’. Splinters evoke the genius of Barrie in this magical four-hander. Devised by Donald Smith and the Company: John Shedden, Anna Hepburn, Finlay McLean, Kara Johnston. Licenced Bar with a good selection of real ales and other bottled beers, wines, spirits, soft drinks, etc.

Women On The Verge Of A T-Junction - Fiona Knowles (MsFits)
Thursday 30th October 2008 @ 7.30pm	£10.00
Three women, three generations, three agendas, one lapse of concentration, all it takes to reduce a grown AA man to tears! No-one's hurt but who is to blame? Not Bessie, 82, she might have trouble seeing over the steering wheel, but she drove four wheel drives over mine fields in '45! Not Liz, 53, she may be on her 5th driving test, but this time she HAS to pass! Not Ellie, 38, she may have a mobile phone stuck to her ear, but she is a Whizz at multi-tasking! Three women on a collision course that will change their lives forever... and seriously damage their rear view mirrors! When their cars collide at a T junction three very different lives get as entangled as their bumpers in another one woman tour de force from The MsFits.
