FROM THE BARN THEATRE ARCHIVE

The Farndale Macbeth

An hysterical comedy by David McGillivray & Walter Zerlin Jr
Directed by Dick Breeze
14th – 22nd September 2012

The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen’s Guild Dramatic Society’s Production of Macbeth!

This uproarious comedy introduces the ladies of F.A.H.E.T.G.D.S., their Producer, Plummer, and Stage Manager, Henry.

Their startlingly original production of Macbeth should get them to the Welwyn Garden City Finals but – under the carefully mascara’d eye of adjudicator George Peach – events conspire against them…
