 Progress Theatre presents:
Classic Writing – Double Bill
Progress Theatre, The Mount, Christchurch Road, Reading
Gaggle of Saints, by Neil LaBute
This award-winning, lyrically intense one-act play concerns a young Mormon couple who separately describe the events of an anniversary weekend in New York. As the events described entwine, the girl is blissfully unaware of the violence perpetrated by her fiancé.
and
Handbagged, by Moira Buffini
For over a decade Margaret Thatcher met the Queen for a weekly audience. With all her previous Prime Ministers the Queen enjoyed a fairly informal relationship, but with Mrs Thatcher, things were different. Handbagged is an extremely witty look at what the relationship between these two very powerful and private women might have been like, including the influence of two key men: Ronald Reagan and Michael Shea. It provides a wonderful opportunity for four actresses to portray the two formidable women at different stages of their life.
Directed by: Undine Kalcenaua and Ben Mills

Arlington Arts Centre presents:
An Audience with Henry Blofeld
Arlington Arts Centre, Mary Hare, Newbury
“When you get to my age, you do become an anachronism, or you begin to stand for things that no longer seem to be important. I hope I’m not what you would call a conscious old Etonian. I’ve always been rather flippant about it and stood for having a lot of fun. I think I’ve always been a bit ofa butterfly. I’ve muddled through and I’ve enjoyed muddling through hugely” Blowers.
There is so much more to Henry Blofeld than the cozy old Test Match Special commentary box.
No one has lived life more to the full. No one’s views are more prickly and earth-shatteringly funny. The pompous, the politically correct, the prancing popinjays on every platform of life, are kicked unceremoniously into touch.
Elf an Safety are shaken until the pips squeak.
