BCP’s Back, and with its 20th Pantomime!
Mother Goose...er…Swan
The evil demon ‘Priti Snyde’ desires nothing more than to bring mankind to its knees.
All she needs to succeed is to turn a pure human soul to a life of greed and sin. Meanwhile in the town of Barnes-Billville, Mother Swan and her son Silly Billy are down on their luck. Practically penniless with only Pricilla the Swan to their name until one day, a golden spell makes them EGG-straordinarilly rich!
But Mother Swan is as kind as any human could be, she'd never turn to greed and vanity...would she?
A 'cracking' pantomime adventure that's well worth a gander!
Performances:
16th - 20th March 2022
8pm Wed - Sat (+3:30pm Sat Mat, +4:30pm Sun Mat)

The UK is in crisis: debt is spiralling, unemployment is on the rise and the fragile coalition cabinet, led by Prime Minister Jim Hacker, is at breaking point. But salvation may exist in the form of a complex pipeline deal with the oil-rich country of Kumranistan that would entitle the government to a multi-trillion pound loan. When the Kumranistan Foreign Secretary makes a shocking request of Jim's Private Secretary Bernard Woolley, moral considerations collide with the economic future of the nation. But how will Jim and his team: Bernard, Cabinet Secretary Sir Humphrey Appleby, and Special Adviser Claire Sutton, reconcile the two? Political machinations, media manipulation and an appeal for divine intervention ensue.
From the writers of the original television series Yes, Minister and Yes, Prime Minister, comes the equally sharply satirical stage version, seen at the Festival Theatre, Chichester in 2010 and the Gielgud Theatre, London, in 2011, followed by a tour in 2012.

Beverly and Laurence are entertaining their new neighbours, Angela and Tony as well as Susan, whose teenage daughter, Abigail is having a party to which Susan has been dis-invited. Over drinks and snacks, cliches and fatuous small talk abound. The tension escalates as the marital strain between both couples surfaces. Susan's anxiety over Abigail's party accelerates as rock music permeate the room. As Beverly and Angela offer some supremely tactless remarks, reality breaks through the smugness when Laurence collapses.....
This is your trial

The OSO becomes a courtroom for the BCP’s 'This Is Your Trial'.
When you come to our court, your role is that of a juror. You decide the guilt of those accused. In addition, you may be called to deliver evidence, present a witness statement, or be put on trial yourself!
This Is Your Trial is an interactive and improvised comedy show. You decide your level of participation. If you are facing charges, you’ll be provided with the best legal defence your ticket price can afford!
