Festival of One-Act Plays 2008
'Last Tango in Blackwood' (written by David Tristram)
Director: Neil Maidman
Blackwood Amateur Dramatic Society is in trouble. The membership has dwindled to four - the audiences aren't much bigger - and if they don't come up with some rent money soon, they're going to be thrown out.
"There's only
one thing that sells tickets
these days," argues Gordon the
Chairman. "Sex!"
And so ensues
the hilarious antics of four very
different
people, all trying to do their bit for something they believe
in.

'Late Entry' (written by David Tristram)
Director: Neil Maidman
"Tristram at
his brilliant best. Biting wit
and
beautifully observed satire. Superb spoof one-handed play, followed
by a
cruel and
entirely justified lampoon of an adjudicator. Should be
compulsory
viewing for all adjudicators, and indeed,
everybody with a love of
theatre."
