Dorchester Drama’s next production is cast and we’ve started rehearsals, running through a complete reading and some blocking. It’s too early to say it’s coming into shape, there are many ideas still being tried out and, for some of us, the concept of Brecht’s Epic Theatre is still quite foreign.
In the meantime we also had a social evening last week, with a number of planned and impromptu party pieces entertaining those attending.
If you were not there, you missed Rob playing the part of Sleeping Beauty under the direction of Billie, while Mike & Fiona played the King and Queen, but not necessarily in that order. Other talented actors were also involved.
By the time you read this, Casting for Caucasian will be under way. There will be another casting night at Sunninghill hall 7:30pm this Wednesday if you fancy coming along.
Last week we had a workshop to introduce the play, and to the Brecht style of Epic Theatre. This involved us playing some improvisation scenes including short versions of Red Riding Hood. These were good enough to put on to the public, so maybe we can suggest to the director a change of production?

Your faithful author has just had a few days away after the end of the play and so here has been a bit of a delay in getting more photos etc online.
The last night at Kingston Maurwood was a complete success, completely sold out, with some very nice comments given to the production team afterwards.
The venue was spectacularly in theme with the play and huge thanks to the College who let us borrow their chairs etc. for the set. Record time for a ‘get in’ to a venue, setting lights etc ready for curtain up on time. Many thanks as well for the guys that turned up just to help with the get out as well.
We are waiting for a few more photos, particularly of the Kingston Maurwood performance, I was too busy to even think about snapping a few shots before curtain up.
Meanwhile below is the gallery of photos we’ve gathered so far.

Finally, DD aims to put on three productions a year, so we’re straight into the next. Arthur Miller’s ‘The Crucible’. A complete change of pace and genre and due for performances in November. Keep up to date here, on facebook and Twitter.
Also, date for our AGM this year is 23rd August 7:30pm at Sunninghill hall, Culliford Road. Obviously there’s going to be some committee business to do, but there’s also a chance to socialise, meet the group and find out how you can join us.
Some photos from the tech rehearsal last night.
Break a leg for the performances today guys.
