Our next production is A MURDER IS ANNOUNCED<\/strong><\/a> by Agatha Christie<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

\nPLEASE NOTE – THESE ROLES ARE UNPAID<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

THE SYNOPSIS<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

An announcement in the local paper states the time and place when a murder is to occur in Miss Blacklock’s Victorian house. The victim is not one of the house’s several occupants, but an unexpected and unknown visitor. What follows is a classic Christie puzzle of mixed motives, concealed identities, a second death, a determined Inspector grimly following the twists and turns, and Miss Marple on hand to provide the final solution at some risk to herself in a dramatic confrontation just before the final curtain.<\/p>\n

Due to our younger male members being unavailable for this production, we are looking to fill the roles listed below.<\/p>\n

We will be performing the play over 4 nights during the May\/June 2018 half term holidays from Wednesday 30th May<\/strong> until Saturday 2nd June<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Auditions and casting for the other roles have already taken place but if you are interested in a part, please do get in touch and we will invite you along to our next meeting (these take place on Wednesday evenings) in Charlton.<\/p>\n

Please send through the appropriate criteria – a picture and phone number – along with any links to videos you may wish to share with us of yourself performing (though this is not essential).<\/p>\n

If we are happy with your submission, you will be invited to attend our next meeting.<\/p>\n
