"CHAIM’S LOVE SONG"
By MARVIN CHERNOFF
Directed by Malcolm Taylor

Chaim Shotsky has problems. His son Reuben, the actor, has changed his name to Rock Cooper. His daughter is leaving her husband to ‘find herself’. His love for his wife Tzawrah seems unrequited. So he spends his days in the local Brooklyn park, talking to the pigeons, looking for someone to tell his troubles to. And then he meets Kelly, another lost soul, little knowing how his world is about to change. Chaim’s Love Song provides a fine balance between sharp wit and grave wisdom, laughter and tears, and is guaranteed to melt even the hardest of hearts.

“A MONTH OF SUNDAYS”
by Bob Larbey.. Director: Ian Vellins.

This uplifting story of the friendship of two men in an old peoples’ home is tenderly and perceptively written by Bob Larbey who has, together with his partner John Esmonde, written many comedy series for television. These include Please Sir, The Fenn Street Gang, The Good Life etc. As a solo writer he had much success with A Fine Romance starring Judi Dench and the late Michael Williams.

"At first the plot of this murder mystery seems to follow a well-worn track: a greedy husband wanting to get his hands on his wife’s money first kills her brother and then tries to convince her that she is on the verge of a nervous breakdown, before enlisting his girl friend to help him murder the wife. His plans, of course, do not work out as he intends and the twists and turns are numerous as successive suspects (each with a plausible motive) are identified as being possible perpetrators of the ensuing murder. This ingenious play from the master of the genre, the creator of the hugely popular Paul Temple series, is guaranteed to have you on the edges of your seats as it comes to its dramatic conclusion."

Limelight is proud to be performing the dramatised version of The Diary of Anne Frank at The Carriageworks. Limelight first performed this play in 1981, but now that there is a new generation of young people who are studying the Holocaust at school it seems a good time to present it once again.
