Theatrical Experience/Training:
Claire has been involved in
amateur dramatics all her life, but only started writing since retiring
from teaching. Before that
she wrote short scripts for primary school plays which stood her in good
stead when writing for her local drama group.
Claire’s
adaptation of A Christmas Carol was written for this group
which then had a preponderance of females wanting to perform.
It offers opportunities for groups to exploit the particular
talents of different performers, and is easy to stage.
Friends
Disunited is a fully-scripted Murder Mystery play set at a school
reunion. The audience are
encouraged to join in the theme and pretend they are all ex-pupils.
Claire has also written
several other fully-scripted murder mystery plays which she publishes
herself. They are set in modern day village life and include the sort
of characters we all love to hate!
There are breaks in the action for supper, bar, raffle and for
the audience to interrogate the suspects and guess who-dun-it.
There are several endings to choose from.
