Roughcast Theatre Company
Pygmalion touring in November
“Cherup Capt’n and buy a flower offa paw gerl” – thus begins the story of Eliza Doolittle, taken under the wing of Professor Henry Higgins, a linguistic expert. He has made a bet that within six months he can transform the scruffy, Cockney girl into a ‘proper lady’ and pass her off as a Duchess.
With a fabulous cast and sumptuous costumes, the tour begins in Halesworth on the 14th November, before travelling to Bungay, Laxfield, Beccles, Diss and Wingfield ending on the 23rd.
See: www.roughcast.co.uk for details.

The Yellow Wallpaper
24th October
Confined to the attic with nothing but a journal and her thoughts, a young mother is prescribed peace and tranquillity to help her hysteria. But her thoughts are less than tranquil and the attic’s Yellow Wallpaper does little to quiet her mind, forcing her to explore every corner of her sanity.
Written in 1892, Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s Yellow Wallpaper is an important piece of feminist literature which brings to life the attitude towards physical and mental health in the 19th century while gripping readers with its foreboding atmosphere.
