WEYMOUTH Drama Club is working with the RSC this summer as part of the Open Stages initiative.
The amateur group will be performing The Tempest at the Nothe Fort in Weymouth from Saturday, June 14 to 18 at 8pm.
This prestigious endorsement means that in the run-up to the production, the club will work with Tim Ford, a director from the RSC who is also attached with the Nuffield Theatre in Southampton. Richard Grafton, the director and adapter of The Tempest , said: “We are absolutely thrilled to have the chance to do this because it is a wonderful opportunity for our members and preparations are coming along well.
Tickets for The Tempest are available from Weymouth Pavilion Box Office on 01305 783225 or can be booked via the website weymouthdramaclub.co.uk
