Monday, September 13th, 2010
Cubbington Players present two One Act comedies on 14th -16th October 2010
Babysitting Calvin by John H. Newmeir and Keep Calm by Louis Goodrich
In Babysitting Calvin we meet baby Calvin (acted by an adult) who can remember his previous life when he was happily married to Laura.  Calvin will lose his blissful memories when he reaches his first birthday – or speaks – so he’s determined not to talk!  But when Laura comes to babysit, along with lecherous Bob who was once Calvin’s best friend, Calvin’s wonderful memories are disturbed.  Calvin sets about thwarting Bob but can he prevent the unthinkable happening – without speaking?
Keep Calm is set around a couple with a baby, a cook, a nanny and a maid.  But from the moment the wife goes out for the afternoon all manner of mayhem and mistaken identites occur.  Will the husband be able to keep calm?  Will the wife find out?….will anyone know who anyone is?  Come along and find out.
Double Trouble shows at Cubbington Village Hall on Thursday 14th, Friday 15th and Saturday 16th October 2010 at 8pm.  Doors open at 7.30pm with a licensed bar available.  Tickets can be purchased (at the ridiculously low price of £5 for adults and £3.50 concessions) from Bargain Booze/Select Convenience in Rugby Road, Lifestyle Express in Queen Street, Cubbington, by phoning 01926 330609 or email cubbingtonplayers@hotmail.com

Murders Galore in Cubbington

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

If you’d like to see more murders in two hours than in a whole TV season of Miss Marple, then come along to Cubbington Players’ next performance,” A Tomb with a View”.

This off-beat black comedy-come murder mystery has some pretty odd characters, mostly from the Munster-like Tomb family ; one with werewolf tendencies, another who wanders around in a toga like Julius Caesar, a mad scientist, a predatory man eating hussy, and a gentle lady who plants more than seeds in her flower beds.

In a sinister library, presided over by the portrait of a grim-faced, mad eyed old man, a dusty lawyer reads a will to this off-beat family and visitors. Soon there are corpses aplenty, amid plot twists and a surprising conclusion.

“A Tomb with a View” shows at Cubbington Village Hall on Thursday 13th, Friday 14th and Saturday 15th of May 2010 at 7.45pm.  Tickets can be purchased (at the ridiculously low price of £5 adult and £3.50 concession) from Bargain Booze/Select Convenience on Rugby Road, Lifestyle Express on Queen Street, Cubbington, by phoning Sam on 01926 887844 or email: sam.kneeshaw@yahoo.co.uk.
