Opening night beckons...

As of Monday, The Envelope Project officially moved in to Friargate Theatre - our home for the week. We've teched, we've dressed, we've had a wonderful preview. We've all finally been in the same room together for the first time. Above are the faces that are going to bring to life the words that the writers of the project have worked on for months. It's very, very close now. 

The Box Office phone at Friargate is ringing and people are talking about this. This chance to see five completely new plays on one evening. That doesn't happen that often. Last night was our dress rehearsal, and courtesy of Andrew Dyer Photography we can now show you a first glimpse of each of the five plays.

Claire Morley and James Martin in 'Good Grief' by Richard Kay

 

 

 

Elizabeth Cooke and Thomas Cocker in 'A Sporting Affair' by Alice Mapplebeck

Angie Shaw and Matt Simpson in 'Stone' by Helen Shay

Beryl Nairn, Lucy Simpson and Alex Schofield in 'Never Have I Ever' by Rebecca Thomson

Ian Giles and Richard Easterbrook in 'S.O.S.' by Tom Straszewski

This is a real opportunity to see and support new writing in York. We would encourage you to spread the word, bring a friend. This is a varied, diverse line up of plays with casts drawn from the wide pool of acting talent in York. It will be a night well spent. Make sure you don't miss out.
