DORCHESTER Drama Club is presenting two single act plays to be performed at the Corn Exchange tomorrow and Friday evening.
Out for the Count features the tale of The Count, newly arrived from Transylvania at Dr. Sewer’s asylum, who is hungry for more than Bridget’s fruit cup or Constance’s bloody Mary!
Thwarted by a cross shaped birthmark and hounded by the Professor, the Count enlists obnoxious Rennet to help and nearly defeats the Professor and young Jonathan. But all have reckoned without Bridget’s escargots.
The next play to get the Dorchester Drama treatment will be The Witches of Prestwick.
Three members of a local amateur dramatic society are rehearsing their roles as the witches in ‘the Scottish play’, with varying levels of competence.
Bev, the ablest actress, has taken her role a bit too seriously and has been researching witchcraft to lend plausibility to her performance. Goaded by Jan and Lou, she gives them a crash course in magic!
Tickets are available from Trinity Stores in Trinity Street, Dorchester.
