Candleford A play by Keith Dewhurst based on the books by Flora Thompson Faringdon Junior School 6th 7th 8th November 2008 Directors: Debbie Lock and Dave Headey

Programme

Candleford is being performed to celebrate Faringdon Dramatic Societies 60th birthday, and will be performed “In the Round”. This play is a sequel to 'Lark Rise' that FDS performed in May 1998 for our 50th. Both plays were created from the trilogy 'Lark Rise to Candleford' by Flora Thompson, which has also recently been adapted and serialised for television. It takes place in a small Oxfordshire town, in the late 19th century where Laura works in the post office. The play depicts a day in mid winter giving a lively picture of typical country life with music and songs. With a cast of 30 who’s ages range from 11 to 70+ and a live band it should be a wonderful evening’s entertainment.

Tickets will be available from the Nut Tree nearer the time.
