On Friday 13th June at 7.30pm in Payhembury Hall, there will be a first reading of ‘They Dream of Home’, a new play by John Somers to commemorate the outbreak of WW1. We will read the script and discuss how this ‘processional production’ will take place in early September in various locations in Payhembury village. Unless the weather is too bad, we will be able to walk around Payhembury to look at and discuss the locations where the performance will happen. Males in the 15 to 40 age bracket are especially needed.
Attendance does not mean you can’t escape being in it! I am very happy to discuss with people from parishes other than Payhembury how the play might be adapted for use in other communities. The play is being used in at least one other community in Devon.
