With Nora A Dolls House now just about selling out we’re already thinking of our next production and auditions are next week!

Come along to the theatre on either Wednesday 22 or Thursday 23 May @ 7.30pm to try out for a great new play written and directed by Jane Barrie.

Five old female friends meet, as they always do, once a week to catch up, see what’s going on argue and reminisce but this week they have a plan. Fast forward a year and their lives have changed irrevocably. The play captures how it feels to be an older woman in a world which some of them are trying to stay in tune with and some can no longer fathom. It explores sisterhood and the nature of female friendship, the process of ageing and what it’s like to be outside the circle.

It’s a fast-paced, frank, funny and moving play and if you’d like to audition please email Jane on [email protected] for audition pieces and further information. Or check our website www.davenhamplayers.co.uk 😉

Looking forward to seeing you there! 🎭❤️🎭
