Musicians for Deaf Ears

To raise funds to purchase an infrared hearing aid system for the deaf attending shows at the Tower Theatre, local musicians (amateur and professional) have agreed to give their time for free. This is a one off event whose sole purpose is to raise funds for this one item and how more fitting can it be that the makers of the most beautiful of sounds do their bit for the people least able to appreciate it.

For more information on Musicians for Deaf Ears and the final line up contact www.towertheatrefolkestone.co.uk

 

Date: Saturday 13th June 2009

Time: 7.00 pm

Tickets: £8.00 (£10.00 on the night)

Bedroom Farce

The play takes place in three bedrooms during one night and the following morning. The cast consists of four married couples. At the beginning of the play, the oldest couple, Delia and Ernest, are getting ready to go out for a meal to celebrate their wedding anniversary; Malcolm and Kate, the youngest, are about to host a housewarming party, to which the other two couples, Jan and Nick and Susannah and Trevor (the only ones whose bedroom is not seen), have been invited. At the last minute Nick has hurt his back and is unable to go. The complicating factor is that Jan used to be Trevor's girlfriend, and after Susannah and Trevor have a blazing row, Susannah finds Trevor kissing Jan. As a result Susannah leaves the party and goes to visit Delia and Ernest, whose connection with the rest of the plot is that they are Trevor's parents; she ends up sharing Delia's bed, while Ernest is forced to sleep in the spare room. Meanwhile Trevor himself, feeling unable to go home, is also offered a bed in a spare room by Kate, but decides to go and "straighten things out" with Nick and Jan, leaving Kate waiting up for him. Eventually Trevor and Susannah seem to be reconciled, but the end of the play leaves the audience very doubtful about whether this state of affairs will last.

Tickets: £8.00 (£10.00 on the night)

Box office: Tony Cock on 01303 223925

Wednesday 8th July 1.30pm

Apple Journey


Ana loves the apple tree in her garden.  She sits underneath it to think, she listens to the wind in the leaves and sometimes she even talks to it.  When her apple tree becomes ill Ana must go on a dangerous journey far from her home in Kent.
She rides on the back of an eagle summoned by spirits of the Roman world to the Celestial Mountains of Kazakhstan. Ana discovers a wild and ancient culture. Meeting Medvius the Bear, she learns the history of the apple and her own history.
The Apple Journey is a new play with music for all the family written by local actress Juliet Alderdice, directed by Ellen Hughes and designed by Amy Penrose. 

Wednesday 8th July 1.30pm                   
Thursday 9th July 7.30pm
