Hi Everyone!
Thank You to all who came to the readings. Now that we've held all 4, we'd like to know which would be your preference to perform for the Spring Production 2026, to be directed by Milli, and which one would you be most interested in auditioning for..
Once the poll closes, Milli will take on board all of your preferences before we unveil which will be the Spring production. As Director, she will have the casting vote.
It's important to make your vote count! - you can vote TWICE - so use your Two votes wisely!
If you're really passionate about a particular play, then give it 2 votes, or if you are torn between 2, give them one vote each - it's up to you but you can only log on once!
To help you decide, below are brief synopsis recaps for each of the plays:

WYRD SISTERS by Terry Pratchett
Very popular, zany, fast-moving fantasy-comedy of confusion loosely based on Shakespeare's MacBeth wrapped up in a science-fiction world! 3 witches gathered.. A King cruelly murdered, his throne usurped by his ambitious cousin. A child heir and the royal crown, both missing. Granny Weatherwax, the most highly-regarded of the witches finds that meddling in royal politics is a lot more complicated than certain playwrights would have you believe! Particularly when the blood on your hands just won't wash off...
Potential to be performed in the round, making a more intimate staging for the audience
