Big
Year Ten
To
mark Barrow Youth Theatre's tenth year the company put together
a festival of six short plays. Three were devised by the company
members, two written by Youth Theatre members, and a rehearsed
reading of new writing that had only been produced once before.
Night one - Family night
Beak
A
puppet show devised by the company
Chickadee is a chicken who has lost his beak and travels into
the far reaches of space in the farmers crop duster to find
it.
Ginger
By Stephanie Sloane
Ginger
is a cat, but no ordinary cat . . . HE CAN TALK. Ginger is
the hilarious story of how he learnt!
Fairy
By Barrow Junior Youth Theatre
There's
something in the attic . . . Kia has lost his mobile phone.
When his sister starts getting weird texts from the lost phone,
things start to get creepy. A funny and heart-warming story
about a family of stepbrothers and sisters trying to get on.
Night
two - Plays with BYTe
Solid
By
Robin Lennox
Tough
lads (not) hanging about on street corners and the heist of
the century (well no!) - they haven't got the brains but they
do have a younger brother.
Car
Devised
by the cast
Three teens on their way to Liverpool, in the worst car in
the world. When the car breaks down things go from bad to
worse. A road movie with no travelling.
Souled out
By Jeff Williams
Rehearsed
Reading
Its 1974, Northern Soul rules the north of England; big dance
moves, big collars and big laughs with a splash of double
diamond.
