COLWALL Players are reviving April de Angelis's epic drama A Warwickshire Testimony for their spring production.
The play was commissioned in 1999 by the Royal Shakespeare Company and included in its final season of the millennium.
The drama is based on a real village near Stratford and bears witness to the huge changes that the 20th century has brought to the rural way of life.
It focuses on the loves, traumas and disputes of a single family, which remains central to the action throughout.
Lee Farley, director of Perfect Circle Theatre Company, is directing the play. He has recruited a company of local actors across a wide age range, and rehearsals have been aimed at developing a strong and sympathetic ensemble.
A Warwickshire Testimony will be presented in Colwall Village Hall on Thursday 28th to Saturday 30th May 28-30, at 7.30 pm. Tickets are available from John Goodwin’s Colwall office, on 01684 540300, at £8, or £5 for under 16s
