Frankenstein's Guests

A Comedy by Martin Downing

Following the success of our two night run in September in the village hall we took our old friend "Frankenstein's Guests" to the Aberdeen Arts Centre to compete against ten other productions in the Scottish Community Drama Association's 75th Anniversary Festival of Drama

Simon, Jess, Arne, Judith and April

when we first saw the auditorium!

Our first competitive showing

Was suitably nerve racking. We were very nervous for our first performance of Frankenstein's Guests for the village but in a real auditorium in the (self proclaimed) "big" city we all had butterflies.

Here are some shots of the cast and crew getting ready for the performance.

Kevin, Craig and our new Count Dracula, Kris.

With 2 bulkhead lights in the dressing room
Jess was truly star struck.

Bernie and Karen are left alone in Kury
as the looming performance and the curry
take effect on the cast.

Not the most salubrious of dressing rooms
it had to be said!

Simon and Craig truly relaxed

Gillian took it all in her stride.

Judith had more colour in her
cheeks after the make up!

Missed a bit Kris!

The venture was a huge success with us receiving good feedback from the adjudicator Mr Brian Marjoribanks. A notable success was the stage which Roy managed to engineer and decorate before heading off for his holiday.
