New! Topical comedy about council cuts!

Dirty Business by Derek Webb

The hilarious, topical comedy about Council cuts, the cleaning business and a pair of lacy knickers! Cuts are on their way big time at the local County Council as it struggles to find ways to meet Government spending targets. Josie and Angela are cleaning the office of one of the Council's Department Heads one evening when they come across a file which seems to show that their jobs are on the line too.

Josie, who has a penchant for malapropisms, and Angela, who is Queen of the pub quiz
team, are determined to fight the cuts every inch of the way. And if that means playing dirty, so be it! So, when they discover some incriminating evidence which seems to show the same Department Head is guilty of marital infidelity, they set out to try and persuade him to change his mind about some of the planned cuts. But not everything goes quite according to plan...

Cast: 2f, 1m. Length: 60 mins.

Cressrelles have just updated the New Mixed Cast Catalogue.

Four new one-act plays by Scott Marshall - the world-renowned GODA Adjudicator - The Martha Syndrome, Moving On, Quotations on the Margin and The Replacement - needless to say, all four are brilliant, challenging plays, with small casts so are ideal for entries in next year's round of Festivals.

Also, two new collections of monologues and sketches by Ellie Fossey - A Click of the Heels: A Book of Monologues and Sketches; and Intervals - three connected sketches set backstage at a pantomime production of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

Luton Writers

We have a programme for new writers that provides the way to construct short fiction, novels, films and STAGE PLAYS. We are currently recruiting writers who have or would like to have the ability to write the above.

Meetings are spaced out to enable the writers to practice the tutorials and should they care to produce a full length work to suit what they are particularly interested in. Each group sets the meeting days and dates. The fees to cover all the costs are £25-00 for the year.

Luton Writers are a non-profit making organisation and any surplus of the fees is placed in our account to help future plans.
