Anton's Shorts
Tue 11 Apr 2023 8:00 PM - Sat 15 Apr 2023 BST
Alma Tavern and Theatre, BS82HY
Description
8pm Tuesday - Saturday
A cavalcade of characters bustle through this zestful mash-up of interpretations of tales from the fabulous realist and humanist Anton Chekhov; adapted freely for the stage to provide 75 minutes of giddy dramatic storytelling to relish.
Ride the ups and downs of ambition for tipsy lawyers who have Gone Astray. Relish the story of a train carriage uncoupling from reality via Morecombe & Wise and an enigmatic lady with a tale to tell. Experience how a put-uopn wife seizes the life she was promised with a baffled bank manager who is confronted by a defenceless creature on the attack.
Written in collaboration by Ian Gilson and Charles Thompson; both part of the writers' team for three highly popular Anti-Brexit shows by Remania Productions.
Approx running time 1 hour and 50 mins (incl. 20 min interval)
All tickets include a £1 booking fee
