Latest News – After the success of our last Cafe

The Farmhouse in Canterbury last February (see Review link), we are ready
to start rehearsals for our next show at the same in venue in early October.
We shall be staging Anton Chekhov’s hilarious short comedy “The
Bear” in a version created by the acclaimed Irish playwright Brian
Friel. |
