KAFPA are proud to host Eastern Angles this spring:

Venture across the Irish Sea to County Kerry as Eastern Angles present Stones In His Pockets.

Local lads Jake and Charlie are working as extras on a Hollywood epic movie that has taken over their small village in rural Ireland. Switching from plucky Irish extra to know-it-all American movie star with a flick of the wrist, Jake and Charlie take on all fifteen characters to tell the story of the impact this movie has on their local community. The result is a sad, hilarious and irresistible play that pushes the boundaries of storytelling. Inspired by the cinematic stylings of Wes Anderson, Eastern Angles are also adding newly composed music and video projection to the multi-award winning play. A hit in Dublin, Edinburgh and London’s West End, Stones In His Pockets is a chance for audiences to laugh, cry and revel in the power of theatricality.

A reminder from Karen for this Tuesday. Thank you those who have already contacted her.

I have been a member of Kirton and Falkenham Performing Arts drama group for several years. I have enjoyed being part of KAFPA and I was very proud of our last production ‘Ghosts at the Grange’ that we performed in 2019.

The pandemic interrupted our activities and it has proved difficult to get going again.

I would like to invite anyone who was a past or current member of the group and anyone who would like to get involved in relaunching the group to a meeting on 6th June at 7.30 pm at the Recreation ground Pavilion.
If you wish to contact me please do so via email

**** FREE WORKSHOP BY Eastern Angles ****

As part of our latest tour, we are offering you a free Medieval Miracles workshop. This fun creative workshop will introduce you to the world of Medieval Theatre and understand why it was so popular in the 15th Century.

This session will focus on what is needed to create a morality play and how we can teach a moral message through the medium of theatre. You will be introduced to examples of morality scripts and performances which will allow you to create your own bitesize performances focused on the themes of climate change and what being a 'good citizen' really means. You will learn more about the development of important medieval theatre events that took place on your doorsteps 600 years ago as well as having the chance to expand your repertoire.

It’s time to understand these fantastic art forms that have stood the test of time!
