In a departure from our recent run of comedy plays, our Autumn production this year will be Time to Kill by Leslie Darbon directed by Clive Dow and will be performed from 22nd to 25th October 2025.
WT members and non-members are invited to come along to a reading of the play on Thursday 1st June at 8 pm in the Green Room, Woodclyffe Hostel, Church Street, Wargrave.
Time To Kill is a serious, gripping thriller with some uncomfortable themes that leaves the audience wondering what is going to happen next! Set in Riverside Park, Maidenhead, during the 1970s it tells the story of a group of bored housewives plotting a trial.
There are six cast members, four women and two men. All the characters will require to play a range of emotions and to build up the suspense as well as making the most of the few more humorous moments.
To disclose more at this time would be giving too much away!
The reading will be followed by auditions on 5th June and possibly 10th June. The intention would be to quickly cast the play and have some rehearsals before a recess for the peak holiday season – a great chance to learn your lines!
If anyone has aspirations to direct in the future, I am keen to have someone work with me on this play as a co-director to observe, support and contribute. So if that appeals to you, please let me know at the reading.
I look forward to seeing you on 1st June!
