7.30 pm til 9.30 pm Monday 10 February Tom Jones by Joan Macalpine based on the novel by Henry Fielding Casting for our upcoming Theatre Royal production. See Future Productions for details. Recruitment workshops The twice yearly recruitment workshops provide an opportunity for new members to introduce themselves, and for us to introduce you all to the plays we will be producing in the following 6 months. See 'Future productions for details. Workshops are fun and nobody is placed under any pressure but we'd love to get to know you and figure out how best we can give you some of the enjoyment of taking part either on or off stage. Of course, if you don't want to act but would like to help in other ways we'll be delighted to meet you and our workshops are ideal opportunities for this. No experience necessary, total beginners and Oscar winners - all welcome! The next general recruitment workshop is on 23 March but newcomers will be welcome at all of our workshops.

Thinkers' cornerThe Arts Council of England and Wales have issued their Strategy document for 2020 to 2030. This may be downloaded here and is very encouraging in its emphasis on participation - that is, the intention that more people should 'do' culture rather than be in the audience. Very much the ethos of BTW!

SPEED THE PLOWBy David Mamet
Unitarian Meeting House, Churchgate St, Bury St Edmunds 7.30 pm Thursday to Saturday 27, 28 and 29 February with Saturday matinee starting at 2.30 pm. 
Two film producers, Bobby Gould and Charlie Fox, have a chance to make a blockbuster movie with a superstar actor eager to play the lead. Money in the bank!
Enter Karen, the office temp, who persuades Bobby while he is trying to seduce her (or is she seducing him?) that he would be a better person if instead of the blockbuster he made an ‘art’ film about radiation and the end of the world, a film with no box office potential whatsoever. On hearing of Bobby’s decision, Charlie disagrees. Violently… David Mamet’s 1988 black comedy; a tale of greed, seduction and power, is a brilliant dissection of Hollywood’s movie business. ‘Insanely funny or scarily insane’ Group discounts available by arrangement.
