WOODLANDS Drama Group's next production is The Secret Rapture written by David Hare, one of the country's most acclaimed playwrights.
The play is a witty and acerbic examination of human relationships and centres on two sisters, Marion and Isobel, who meet up at their late father's home.
The part of his much younger widow, the fragile and alcoholic Katherine, is played by member Jennie Chapman. When Marion, an ambitious Conservative junior minister, wants nothing to do with Katherine, the events that follow trigger a tragedy.
Actress Jennie Chapman has much experience in the world of entertainment.
She has recently graduated from the Leeds College of Music with a National Diploma in Musical Theatre.
While there, she played the part of Adelaide in Guys and Dolls and was also a professional singer with a duo Girl Talk. Jennie has toured all over the UK and in Germany, entertaining British troops.
The play shows at Harrogate Theatre Studio from Thursday, October 23 to Saturday, October 25 nightly at 7.45pm and also 2.45pm on Saturday.
Tickets, priced £7, are available from Harrogate Theatre box office on 01423 502116.
