We
have a great opportunity to extend Spotlight by acquiring part
of the building next door.
The
extra space will be used to re-locate the work shop and provide
much needed extra storage.
To
do this, however, we have to build a dividing wall plus all
the ancillary work including forming access to the stage.
The
estimated cost for this project is £12000, which we hope
to raise by giving members and supporters the opportunity to
buy a brick for £10 !!
Anyone
who purchases a brick will go into a draw where three lucky
winners will be Special Guests for a show of their choice.

Lovers
of innuendo and British humour, Flying Circus fans and seekers
of laughs – look no further than this uproarious play
by Green Ginger productions,
the company that brought you "Hi-De-Hi! and "Allo
Allo".
To
the delight of fans everywhere, this popular British television
comedy is now a stage show that revels in nonstop double entendres.
When
the motley crew of the Grace Brothers department store prepare
for a sale of German goods and then depart for a staff holiday
in Spain, they survive their stay in the tropics at a one star
establishment and their encounters with everything from a Spanish
crumpet to randy revolutionaries with everything intact but
their modesty.
Who
can forget some
of the lines made famous by larger than life characters like
Mr Humphreys "I'm free!" (In a deep voice) "Men's
wear." Cpt Peacock "Are you being served, sir?"
Mrs Slocombe "...and I am unanimous in that."

"One
Day I'll Fly Away" SPOTLIGHT DRAMA LIVE
22nd - 25th June 7.30 pm - 26th 2.30 pm
Kylie
is a nineteen year old woman who has been given three hundred
hours community service to do at a Nursing home for the elderly.
Here she meets Nora, an embittered elderly widow who has no
time or compassion for people she finds inferior or lacking
in moral or virtuous conduct.
Nora
and Kylie start off their relationship with mutual comic sarcasm
and dislike, but as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that
although in different ways, they are both walking down the same
path of self-destruction. Their relationship slowly evolves,
but they don't realise how much alike they really are
The
play is full of humour, pathos and sentimentality, leaving you
not knowing whether you should be laughing or crying.
Throw
in missing false teeth, a domestic with an acute addiction to
gossip, a canny old lady who has had a stroke, together with
two nurses who are in complete denial about their feelings for
one another, and you're in for a night of pure theatre

“Bouncers"
LIVE
22nd October 7.30 pm, 23rd October 2.30 pm
As
one of the most performed plays of the twentieth century, John
Godber's "Bouncers" is set in and
around a northern nightclub called "ZOO”, with the
action focusing on the exploits of the four doormen and their
customers.
The
play creates a vivid picture of the relentless hedonism of northern
night life with its raw energy, flashing disco lights, and raucous
lads and lasses out on the town.
It
is a funny, energetic piece of highly theatrical storytelling
where the men are at once themselves, and every character they
happen to meet.
Brought
to you by Park Street Performing Arts Centre we are delighted
to say that this is the newly updated edition of the play.
The
show contains swearing and sexual references – STRICTLY
Over 18’s only
