Loads happening on Stage Door this week.  First of all thank you to my first guest Daniel Curley from Writtle Cards who came in to talk about their next fascinating production of East Lynne which will be at Writtle Village Hall on 21^st-23^rd July at 8pm.  If you would like to go along you can book on 07742 301367 or writtlecards@hotmail.co.uk.  Tickets are £7. If you missed the interview you can listen again below.

Thanks also to my second guest Gavin Wilkinson.  You can also listen to his interview.  If you would like to go and see his production of Our House with Tomorrow’s Talent at the Civic Theatre, Chelmsford it will be there between 20^th and the 23^rd July.  Box Office is 01245 606505 or www.chelmsford.gov.uk/theatres.

Best of luck to both productions.  Also a big well done to Shenfield Operatic Society for their production of The Mikado at the Brentwood Theatre last week.  It was fantastic and really well put together with excellent performances.  A very effective set of beautifully painted flats allowed the exquisite costumes to shine.  Congratulations to all involved.

Other productions coming up: Please come along to the Brentwood Theatre next Sunday 17^th July as we are doing a Musical Revue called An Ordinary Day to raise money for the Brentwood Theatre.  It’s sounding fabulous at rehearsals with a great cast of local performers (and me!).  Devised by Emma Jane Sweeney and Ian Southgate it is set in a New York coffee shop and uses contemporary songs from the West End and Broadway.Tickets can be booked on 01277 200305. Performances are at 3pm and 8pm.
