Claremont and Pinelands to Join Forces

Claremont Dramatic Society and Pinelands Players have joined forces and will be collaborating on a joint production at the Masque Theatre in

December of 2010.

This idea goes back to discussions held between their respective chairpersons, Simon Sutton (CDS) and Clifford Graham (Pinelands), last year, when Pinelands had had to rethink their planning for 2010, due to the proposed refurbishment of The Little Theatre on UCT's Hiddingh Campus in the Gardens. Pinelands have long been resident at this historic venue and have come to regard it as their home. "It's hard to think that we won't be staging a production at The Little Theatre next year" says Clifford Graham. "However that does give us an opportunity to spread our wings during 2010 and this collaboration will not only cement an already good relationship with CDS, but also give us an opportunity to explore another creative space"

Pinelands brings a wealth of musical know-how to the table; CDS a solid track record for straight plays so, while this is sure to provide a challenge to both societies, their combined expertise is bound to produce spectacular results.

And the production to be staged is :
