A most disturbing situation has arisen.
As many of you know, advance bookings for our summer production have gone throught the roof. We believe this is due to the fact that our little show has been featured in a National – though somewhat obscure – publication (which I still haven't managed to track down!). However, following a conversation with a Mr Bo Locques – editor of the Single Mens Union of Titwatchers – I fear we may be in a bit of a pickle.
Apparently, Mr Locques received a phone call from an "interested party" informing him of our forthcoming production entitled ‘Murder at Chicks Mating Manor’ in which I would be giving a classic risque performance. Controlling my raging indignation (a performance worthy of Celia Johnson) I explained that the play is in fact titled ‘Murder At Checkmate Manor’ and I will be giving a classic "Reecesque" performance.
Sadly, yet unsurprisingly, Mr Locques cancelled the seats reserved for S.M.U.T. on Friday 10th July and I fear we may have to vet several of the other block bookings. In an attempt to get hold of any stray members I thought I would put this bulletin on my blog. As for the mysterious "interested party" that rang Mr Locques - who identified himself as Graeme Wodenholt - I have my suspicions!
