2 Shakespeare in Love Based on the screenplay by Mark Norman and Tom Stoppard Adapted for the stage by Lee Hall with music by Paddy Cunneen THE HIT FILM NOW A HIT PLAY! Young Will Shakespeare has writers block. The deadline for his new play a comedy called Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate s Daughter- is fast approaching, he s struggling to finish the first line of a sonnet and he s in dire need of inspiration. Then he meets the beguiling Viola de Lesseps, the beautiful daughter of a wealthy merchant. Viola is prepared to do anything -including risking the frosty disapproval of Queen Elizabeth 1- to fulfil her illicit dream of performing on the London stage and pursuing a passionate affair with the greatest playwright of the age.

Now in their sixties, they meet in an Icelandic wasteland, on the set of a fantasy movie. Hugh has had a plodding career but has landed the small but regular role of Vulcan s butler and he s making his seventh film for the franchise. Gary is a one-time Hollywood A-lister who has fallen on lean times and is playing a guest monster with four hours in make-up and one word in the script. Sparks fly inside the trailer as old wounds are opened. Leela, a runner, attempts to keep the peace between them, but outside the trailer things are not going to plan either: the director s gone AWOL, the catering trucks on the wrong side of the ravine, and the volcanic activity is growing more lively by the minute...

There s Steven, 60, the Cambridge-educated choirmaster; Diane, his younger wife; Ben, who was once a professional tennis player married to Connie, who was once a model; and Bruno, a young history teacher, who cares for his mother. They appear to be the friendliest bunch you could imagine. Whatever differences or problems they may have at home, they are happily bound together by their love of music. Two hours of laughter and harmonies fly by, until one day newcomer Maggie, knocks on the door and everything changes. Members Price

It s 1933 and Peggy arrives in New York City fresh of the bus from small-town America armed with her tap shoes and big dreams. Legendary Broadway director Julian Marsh gives her a spot in the chorus of his latest show, Pretty Lady, but its star, Dorothy Brock, takes an instant dislike to the new girl. When Dorothy is injured during previews, Pretty Lady looks like it will have to close, unless someone talented enough to lead the show can be found someone like Peggy Sawyer! Inspired by Busby Berkeley s film, 42 nd Street is known for its incredible tap-dancing numbers and includes one great song after another, including We re in the Money, Shuffle Off to Buffalo, Lullaby of Broadway and of course 42 nd Street itself.
