The Last Man Club

Monday April 25th brings us a full length stage play by P-P newbie Ross Frowen. In The Last Man Club we are introduced to the dead; to those who died in the Great War and to those who passed away at home over the several decades between 1916 and 1983.
 

7.30 at the North London Tavern.

Don't Look Down

April 18th brings us a new play by a new writer to P-P, Giles Fernando. Giles may be new to us, but he isn't new to the stage, and has had short plays  been staged at the Cockpit, Tristan Bates, and the Canal Café Theatre. Don’t Look Down is a one-man comedy drama, taking a painfully funny look at the angst of hitting 40. 

"Max ends his relationship and quits his job. He lurches from toning up at the gym to embracing Vegas, but when the money runs out a future back home with Mum looms".

7.30 at the North London Tavern.

Kelly Kan Do

April 11th brings us a sitcom by the men who wrote Sorry! Peter Vincent and Ian Davidson.

Kelly (35) has seen her husband stolen away by the appalling Polly. She is left with just a flat and a cat. Determined to bounce back she will do anything legal to survive. But Polly has other ideas - and what side will Bongo the cat come down on?

The evening will give plenty of time for discussing what works in comedy formats for TV by these two veteran comedy writers.

7.30 at the North London Tavern.

How to Write a Play

The new term begins on Monday April 4th with a talk by Greg Mosse.

Greg Mosse calls himself “a writer and an encourager of writers” and teaches creative writing courses together with his wife, Kate Mosse. He has written for the theatre and worked for several publishers as a freelance assessor, editor and translator.  Recommended by a P-P member thus: "Outstanding!  Exactly as advertised and brought to life by Greg. Content and delivery were absolutely superb. Best creative writing course/teaching I have experienced"!

We are honoured to have Greg share his wisdom with us.
