THE MATCHGIRLS

This musical, written by actor Bill Owen, is being presented by The Orchard Players at Capel St Mary Village Hall, on Thursday 17th July, Friday 18th July and Saturday 19th July at 7.45pm each evening.
The plot describes the lifestyle of the match cutters at the factory in the East End of London and the efforts of a factory girl, Kate, to seek help to bring about reform of conditions at the factory.
A strong story line is coupled with catchy and original musical numbers and the cast includes a number of well known local 'stars'.
Tickets are available from Capel Greengrocers and Box Office 07761 782456
