THE SNAIL OF ELBING
The Colour House Theatre's resident Wheelhouse Theatre Company's commitment to new writing will bear fruit in 2008 with the premiere of Barry Langley's "The Snail of Elbing".
Langley, whose directorial credits in film and TV span five decades, has crafted a challenging play - set in war torn Prussia during the Nazi uprising - in which an SS officer's divided loyalties wrench him between his duty and his wife, as she is entering into a dangerous affair with a Jew.
The author will be working closely with director Peter Duggan when rehearsals begin early in the New Year for a March run, and in an innovative initiative the play has been made available to interested parties for the duration of audtions.
