To Celebrate their 35th Birthday celebration
Stirling Players are presenting "The Ghost Train" Directed by Ailsa Travers
In the early 1920's, when it was first written, this play was a 'Dramatic Thriller'. Nowadays, 80 years on we take things more lightly and it is perceived to be a 'Melodrama'.
In the story six passengers are accidentally stranded at a country railway station. Despite the Station Master's weird and horrific stories about a 'Ghostly Train' that goes through at midnight, they decide to stay the night rather than walk through the rain to the next town. Many strange and unexplained things happen, various other people appear and ghostly forms materialise. Eventually one person takes command and all is revealed.
This was the first play ever performed by Stirling Players Inc in 1970.
There are two matinees at 2:00pm
on Sunday the 10th & 17th July 2005

After getting a divorce from C.K. Dexter Haven, Tracy Lord prepares to marry again… however, in the days before her wedding, Haven and a reporter, posing as her brother’s friend, show up at her doorstep. From there, Tracy is forced to choose among her past love, her present love and her new love. Amidst the situation comedy, and fast-paced dialogue, Barry explores several contemporary social issues, such as society’s perception of class differences in America and attitudes towards adultery and divorce in the 1930’s.
