The 39 Steps is a brilliantly fun adaptation of the classic Alfred Hitchcock movie and the original book by John Buchan. With just 4 actors playing a multitude of parts (sometimes several in a single scene) it's a rip-roaring run through this classic spy story. Packed with plenty of laughs, thrills and spills, and a touch of romance.
It follows unwitting hero Richard Hannay as a chance encounter with a beautiful, mysterious woman sets him on the trail of fiendish foreign agents. Framed for murder, he races across the country and against the clock. Can he stay one step ahead of the police? Can he save Britain from it's awful fate? How does he keep his moustache looking that good?

Provenance takes a look inside the world of a reclusive artist Patrick (Saul Marron) who lives in a small and cluttered flat surrounded by his abstract paintings. Which certainly brightens up the wall of the stage in Baron's Court Theatre.
Ellie (Martha Lyn) bursts into his flat thinking she has found an easy mentorship and believes she might finally be on her way in her career. However, she doesn't know how to talk to Patrick and the pair gets into heated banter, which at times can be uncomfortable.
Ellie's had a tough life so far and is desperate to try and change things. However, the chip on her shoulder needs to be knocked off before she will get to where she wants to be. Although this will come with maturity and time and a few more hard knocks along the way. If you have anything to do with twenty-something young ladies there's plenty in Ellie's character that's recognisable.
Her outlook on life challenges Patrick's own life, where being shut away in his flat and artwork have become comfortable but he is not necessarily happy. I would love to have found out a bit more about his past and the catalyst moment that would have led him to be living almost in isolation now.
As mentioned in the beginning the stage is set as an artist studio with a collection of abstract paintings in bright colours, which add a nice feel to the dark theatre space at Barons Court Theatre. The touch of PULP playing on the stereo at the same time they headlined Glastonbury was a cool coincidence.
I felt there are still some developments needed in the characters and possibly a bit more "sass" from Ellie to provoke more from Patrick, twenty-somethings have a knack of doing that. I feel there is more to learn about both of them. After all, he doesn't seem a likely candidate to have become a mentor.
For more information about Provenance and future productions at Barons Court Theatre. Although Provenance has now finished the run there are plans to put it on somewhere else in the future.
Coming to the 2025 BUXTON FRINGE FESTIVAL It's 2028 and octogenarian two-term President Donald Trump is finally about to be replaced for good. Will he go rogue like last time, or will a plan to keep him focused on golf, gorilla documentaries, porn, and developing his perfect presidential library avert disaster?
"Do not see this terrible witch-hunt of a play! It's created by nasty people who hate America so very very much!" ~anonymous, Mar-a-Lago, FL (unverified).
This new play begins with a declining Trump watching the results of the 2028 US election that will choose his successor roll in. Yes, it's set in the future! The Chairman of the Joints Chiefs of staff is concerned and engages White-House-intern-cum-Chief-of-Staff Morgan to keep Trump occupied developing his Presidential Library - one without books no less. But the library project reinvigorates Trump and fate hands him a chance to achieve the dictatorial status he craves. But will fate intervene again for the liberals?
Written and directed by Eoin Carney, an early incarnation titled "I, Trump" played at the INDYfringe and Pittsburgh Fringe festivals in the United States to enthusiastic audiences (and a few walkouts by unimpressed Trump supporters). Soon to be endorsed by Elon Musk(?), THE LAST DAYS OF TRUMP is coming to the Palace Hotel in lovely Buxton and IT'S GOING TO BE INCREDIBLE! Less a partisan hit-job than a satire about unintended consequences and the hand of fate, this political comedy explores how we all would love to be a dictator deep down.
THE LAST DAYS OF TRUMP (A Liberal Fantasy)
by Eoin Carney
Friday 18th July, 7-8pm, Palace Hotel, Buxton, UK

Investment Street recently purchased The Ritz building in Rushden (NN10), and we will be retaining part of the building for commercial use. As the space use to be a theatre and is being made smaller, it would lend itself well to amateur dramatic groups. We are currently in the early stages of renovating the space meaning that (to an extent) we could work with the tenant to configure and design the space to suit their needs. If you know any AmDram groups in Northamptonshire that would be interested in renting out this space, please let me know and I will be happy to provide more details. Best Regards Jennifer Mills
I have recently completed writing a 3-act play called An Act of Madness which is a historical piece based upon my great grandmother who was commited to an asylum in rural Ireland in 1914.
I do not have the funding to produce it myself and wondered if you could advise who might accept submissions for a historical piece such as mine.
I would love to find a good theatre company to stage it.
Please let me know if you are interested in producing this play.
I am based in Kinghorn in Fife but happy to work with a group located elsewhere in Scotland.

My local theatre group, Blackmore Players were going to do this, Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, a while ago then COVID hit! Having a tidy up tonight and found these in the stage store. Unused x 20. Not written in at all, brand new. They cost £10 each but if we got £5 each, they would be happy. Bargain all round! If you are thinking of doing this, DM me and if you're not far from Blackmore, CM4, then sure we can sort something out. Thanks all.
I would be interested to speak to anyone who has produced "Til Beth Do Us Part" (Jones/Hope/Wooten") as some aspects of licensing are unclear. More generally, it's on the books of Dramatists Play Service in the USA. Their website doesn't list any alternate rights holders in the UK (there are for Asia, Scandanavia etc). There are some suggestions that weinbergers holds DPS rights in the UK but I get redirected to the MTI site and I'm just likely to around in circles. Anyway if anyone can offer advice here or message me I'd be grateful to hear experiences. Thanks in advance.

Peter's response:
Hi Rob,
I'm afraid I don't have any information that would help.
I will post your query in the #Advice section of www.dramagroups.com asking anyone who is able to help to contact you directly via Facebook.
