Optional season at Little Theatre

Woy Woy Little Theatre will introduce an optional two-week season of one-act plays next year as part of its subscription series next year.

President Ms Barbara Hickey said the theatre company hoped to "introduce new ideas and actors" to audiences as the company entered its 47th year.

"Our regular season commences in February with the hilarious for Two.

"This will be followed by by Starlight, a romantic comedy, involving a night in the life of a contemporary Irish couple.

"Finally, a Woody Allen comedy 't Drink Water will be staged, set in an American consulate in a mythical Iron Curtain country."

Publicity manager Ms Patrice Horne said Woy Woy Little Theatre's latest production Doubt, currently enjoying a successful season, would see the year out.

"It's one of our best plays to date.

"The story is focused on a Catholic school in the Bronx in the 1960's where a nun accuses a priest of inappropriate behaviour with a young student - the first black child in the school. "Armed with nothing more than her suspicions, she enlists the help of an innocent young nun and the child's tormented mother."

The play continues to be shown at the Peninsula Theatre until November 2.

Tickets are still available at The Peninsula Theatre box office Monday to Friday from 10am to 2pm or by calling 4344 4737.
