About the author : Team BATS
Although things can go wrong on opening night of a community theatre
production. In the case of the BATS latest production of The Farndale
Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen’s Guild Dramatic Society Murder
Mystery nearly everything does…but intentionally. This play highlights
the crucial importance of props, cues, appropriate set construction
and line delivery, sound and lighting effects and timing, particularly
of entrances and exits for the cast. Ignoring one or more of any of
the above (let alone all of them) can quickly spell disaster for a
production.
