The Farndale Avenue...Macbeth
By David McGillivray
About the Show
The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen's Guild Dramatic Society's Production of Macbeth. By David McGillivray & Walter Zerlin Jnr. Directed by Ray Harris. The enthusiastic Farndale Avenue ladies hope the originality of their production of Macbeth will get them, with the help of their producer, Mr Plummer, to the finals at Welwyn Garden City. Alas, events conspire against them and they fall at the last hurdle. Whilst the plot is a familiar one of amateurs hopelessly out of their league, the writing is brisk with many puns alng the way ("Macbeth: How goes the night? Boy: "the moon is down" cue hardboard moon crashing to the floor). The action takes place in the church hall of Our Lady of Cappuccino Arabica Avenue West Hamwick.
