Ventnor Fringe play to raise money for Age UK IW

Thanks to Mark O’Sullivan from Age UK IW for details of these Ventnor Fringe events. Ed


Positive Chaos is a new drama troupe who will be performing their new play ‘Only A Cabaret’ at the forthcoming Ventnor Fringe.

The troupe which is made up of three friends, Rosamunde Heib, Margaret and Derick Oakham, are all amateur writers all in their seventies.

They had wanted to write a play for some time in which they could also perform and seized the opportunity to create something original for the Ventnor Fringe.

‘Only A Cabaret’
Is a tale of life, love and looking forward and shows that however old you are you can actually teach an old dog new tricks!

The play revolves around the lives and loves of three elderly people in an old people’s home and is filled with comic and tragic moments, especially when one of them discovers a secret about his late wife. Although all three characters came from very different backgrounds, the play shows how they grow together in friendship.

The play takes place at The Studio at St. Catherine’s School, Ventnor as part of the Ventnor Fringe at 1.00pm on August 17th 2013.

All proceeds from the play will be donated to AGE UK IW.
