Sidbury into Drama’s spring production of two one-act comedies  ‘Funny Turns’ is at Sidbury Village Hall from Thursday, April 27 until Saturday 29. 

Sidmouth Herald: Emma Murdoch, Vicky Grove, Gwenan Paewai, Tracey Stone and Ian Harbour as ‘Sleuth’, ‘Cool’,

A nervous stranger places a box next to you on a park bench, tells you not to open it, move it or even touch it, and then rushes off. What would you do? That’s the dilemma for the central character in Stephen Bean’s award-winning play 'A Little Box of Oblivion'.

Changing the scene completely, the second half of the programme is David Tristram’s 'Murder in Little Grimley'.

The perennially useless village drama group decides to present a murder mystery. Chaos ensues when Joyce, the only member of the group who really can’t act, is given a couple of lines to speak, and a fictional murder threatens to turn into something more sinister.

Tickets for Funny Turns are £10.00 and may be bought in advance from Drews of Sidbury. The performance starts each evening at 7.45pm.
