BADADDPLE THEATRE PRESENTS 'A YORKSHIRE CHRISTMAS CAROL' - December 2010

Comes to Thorganby Village Hall Thurs 16th Dec 7.30pm. Tickets £8.50 (all adults) £5 children. Box office 01423 339168

Written and directed by Kate Bramley, inspired by the Charles Dickens story.

Enjoy a family treat this Christmas and join the much lauded BadappleTheatre for their latest 'theatre on your doorstep' production.

Writer Kate Bramley (Land Girls of Yorkshire) and her itinerant band of actors put their classic Yorkshire comedy slant on the Dicken's Christmas story. Have a good chuckle while the blustering, skin-flint farmer Ebeneezer Scrooge gets his comeuppance and is forced to see the error of his penny pinching ways. Full of local stories and carols, puppets
and mayhem, and new original songs by Jez Lowe, plus a whacking great dose of seasonal bon-homie, this is a winter warmer to put a smile on
everyone's face this Christmas.

"A classic and comic tale, with a Yorkshire twist, for ages 5 to 95!"

'one of the best touring companies in our region' NORTHERN ECHO

Badapple Theatre Company Presents: The Land Girls of Yorkshire - April 2010

'Some girls just aren't cut out for farming...' It's wartime and there are some new arrivals in the village.  They're turning heads and breaking hearts as the fine girls of the Women's Land Army take to the hills.  Buff is a city girl dreaming of being 'just like Vera Lynn', while Biddy is a country girl who is 'now't but a hopeless romantic'.  We joined them on a journey of  blisters,  back-ache and banter as they learn all there is to know about working on the land. 

Set against a backdrop of glorious music of the age, as well as new tunes by songwriter Jez Lowe, this play owed much to the reminiscences of a number of Land Army girls who contributed their own personal stories to this hilarious new comedy.

"This is a production brimming with creativity and talent.  If you get the chance to go and see this do, as it is a joyful and uplifting experience." York Press

A great night was had by the large audience - the village hall was almost full to capacity which made for a great atmosphere and a rousing chorus of "We'll Meet Again..."  The talents of the Bad Apple Theatre Company knows no bounds and we hope we will see them in Thorganby again soon.
