Crieff supper theatre tickets are now on sale

The opening performance of Crieff Drama Group’s new season takes place at the town’s Red Squirrel Cafe on October 14.

The staged reading, titled ‘ Lurve Actually’, will take place during the annual Crieff and Strathearn Drovers’ Tryst walking festival.

The production is described as “a comic look at wooing, weddings and ‘ wo- men’”, according to a representative for the group.

Tickets, priced at £5, can be bought at the Red Squirrel Cafe or on the Drovers’ Tryst website, www.droverstryst. com.

The following week, from October 20-22, Morrison’s Academy Hall will be the venue for Crieff Drama’s popular supper theatre.

A two- course meal will be complemented by short comedies, each connected by the emotionally-charged topic of relationships.

The sketches, which precede the meal, begin with curtain- raiser ‘ The Bachelor’s Soliloquy’, followed by ‘ Yesterday’ by Colin Campbell Clements and ‘Countdown’ by Alan Ayckbourn.

After supper, the one act ‘ Alternat i v e Accommodation’ by Pam Valentine will be performed – described as a “comedic eavesdrop on how one family’s decision- making does or doesn’t work.”

Curtain up will be at 7.30pm.

Doors and wine bar open at 7pm.

Anyone heading along will be asked to pre-order menu choices when purchasing tickets.

The culinary options will be announced shortly.
