off to the fringe!

We are delighted to announce that Colin George, that consummate performer who has introduced audiences to George Fox with his one-man show, will be casting and directing our production of Two Caravans, the novel by Marina Lewycka, at the Edinburgh Fringe in August (see Eye 25 May) Yes, the editor did give this awesome job to Eye, but we know a professional when we see one, and Colin is our man.

Colin will be ably assisted in this dramatic adventure by his wife Sue, who will stage manage the production.
Colin asks that any of you interested in taking part contact him for information on rehearsal times and level of commitment required. (The final date for applications is 20 June.) We are adapting the novel as a reading, which means you will not have to learn lots of lines.

Full rehearsals are likely to be evening or weekend, and take place in Friends House.
So if our project appeals to you, please email Colin at editorial [at] thefriend.org or drop him a letter at The Friend.
