JUNE is busting out all over and our theatre is a hive of activity - we have just had a visit from BOSMTC with their gorgeous production of Ghost.

Bar is a-buzz with Wasp two-hander

This week, MMTC will be bringing you the classic My Fair Lady and in three weeks, Southport Spotlights will be bringing Beauty and the Beast to the stage.

Between these shows, we are a-buzz about our bar production: The Wasp, by Morgan Lloyd Malcolm, an Olivier-winning British playwright and screenwriter.

We caught up with Cath Dunne (making her debut as a director for the Southport Dramatic Club) and this is what she had to say: “Malcolm takes us on a complex journey that explores how our past transgressions can forge the path for our future selves, in trauma and revenge.
