The Banbury Cross Players present: "Breaking
the Code" by Hugh Whitemore. This compassionate play is the story
of Alan Turing, who broke the code in two ways: He cracked the German
Enigma code used by the Germans to send secret orders to their U-boats
in World War II during World War II (for which he was decorated by
Churchill). And also shattered the English code of sexual discretion
with his homosexuality (for which he was arrested on a charge of gross
indecency). Hugh Whitemore's play, shifting back and forth in time,
seeks to find a connection between the two events - Tickets £7.50/£6.50

The Lynden Players are proud to present In association
with Josef Weinberger Return to the Forbidden Planet is an award winning
Rock 'n' Roll Musical that has been wowing audiences for 18 years
and just keeps getting stronger and stronger. The plot is based on
The Tempest and goes something like this: "On a stormy night way back
in the winter of 2009, mad scientist Doctor Prospero worked late into
the night in his laboratory, aided by his wife Gloria as he developed
the elusive formula with which he would change the world." Taken by
surprise Prospero's wife, Gloria, overpowered him and sent him into
hyperspace on an old shuttlecraft. However she was unaware that her
baby daughter Miranda was aboard the shuttle and was also blasted
into space. Many years later, while on a routine survey flight, the
Intergalactic Starship Albatross encounters a storm of asteroids.
The Science Officer, a strong willed woman, flees in the only emergency
shuttle craft. All the while the Albatross is being pulled inexorably
toward the Planet D'Illyria, which is not marked on their charts.

The Banbury Cross Players present: "Men
of the World" by John Godber. A touching, hilarious, full of
Godber's clever, perceptive, observational humour Three actors play
a multitude of characters (sound familiar?) taking the overland trip
through Europe - once they’ve finally cleared the hour and a half
delay on the Channel Tunnel - Larry, a huge Mario Lanza fan, who’s
been making the trips as long as he can remember, is nearing retirement,
something he really does not want to do. Stick, dry humoured and looking
for career advancement, hates his passengers and wishes he was on
the Spanish run. Frank, the woman in a so called man’s world, holds
her own without any trouble as she slides her way through the situations
that evolve. Their passengers get nick names like “the Beverley Sisters,
“the Marks brothers and arsenic and old lace - so be careful how you
act the next time you go on a continental coach tour. So book your
seats, ladies and gentlemen, for a touching, often hilarious, bitter
sweet journey full of John Godber's usual clever, perceptive view
of "men of the world".
