Announcing Our Summer Play…

Following the success of ‘Mirror Mirror: The Panto’ in January, the Hawarden Players will be returning to the stage in July with the comedy ‘Murder In Play’

Murder in Play Teaser

Rehearsals are well under way already for this hysterical whodunnit which sees the inept cast of Boris Smolensky’s budget repertory production of “Murder at Priorswell Manor”, preparing for opening night.  The actors have forgotten all their notes from the director,  props are going AWOl and the doors in the set keep jamming.  Add to this the ultimate inconvenience when life imitates art and Boris’ wife, Renee, is murdered on stage, and you have the makings for a brilliant night of comedy and guesswork.

Helen Ricketts makes her directing debut for the Hawarden Players with this fantastic play, assisted by Jane Nugent. The cast list is as follows:

Renee – Fiona Burdsall
Tim – Mike Gilliland
Ginette – Sian Parry
Christa – Jane Nugent
Sophie – Debbie Dickinson
Harrison – Ian Bandy
Boris – Kevin Dye
Pat – Denise Garland

Performances take place Thursday 16th, Friday 17th and Saturday 18th July 2015 at the Hawarden Institute. Tickets will be available shortly from hawardenplayers.com.  In the meantime follow our Facebook and Twitter feeds to be kept up to date with all the Players’ latest news!

Another Panto Finished

A few days ago the final curtain fell on the Hawarden Players 2015 Pantomime, Mirror Mirror.

We had a fantastic run with brilliant audiences over all of our performances, and the group are now taking a well earned week or two off before we start work on our summer production, which will be announced here soon!

Until then, a gallery of shots from Mirror Mirror: The Panto has been uploaded onto our pictures page for you to have a look at, along with a few highlights from our dress rehearsal in the new video below.

Thank you once again for all your support during the panto, and we will see you in the summer!

Mirror Mirror: The Panto – Next Week!

Following their successful summer production, the Hawarden Players are again taking to the stage later this month to perform Mirror Mirror: The Pantomime, which brilliantly blends the tales of Jack and the Beanstalk and Snow White!

Cast With Banner

Princess Snow White is approaching her 21st birthday and will become the rightful ruler of the kingdom, but her evil stepmother, the Wicked Queen and the bumbling ladies in waiting Cissy and Ada will do anything it takes to stop her. Smitten Jack tries to aid the Princess, but does this tough cookie really need his help? And then there’s Mamma Meatball who is always on hand with jokes, words of wisdom and occasionally a water pistol!

Add to that singing, dancing, audience participation and a visit from our very special guest Pat the Cow, and you have an afternoon or evening that is fun for all the family!

Performances take place at the Hawarden Institute Friday 23rd and Saturday 24th January at 7.30pm, with matinees being held on Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th at 3.00pm

Tickets are just £7 for adults and £5 for children and can be bought from hawardenplayers.com, by calling 01244 531085, from the Hawarden post office, or on the door on the day of performance!
