Front Row Theatre Group are putting on "Audacity" a play by Simon Mawdsley on 26-28th November in Eaton Bray Village Hall. Tickets £7 or £5 from the Box Office at 01525 222283
Philip is an average salesman, going through a messy divorce. Deciding to inject some much needed excitement and cash into his life, he devises a sure-fire get rich scheme. Realising he can't succeed alone, he enlists the help of two rather naïve business colleagues, John and Dave. With gentle persuasion from Philip, both are enticed into his get-rich-quick plan. However, when Dave and John start behaving uncharacteristically, their wives Gemma and Gillian become entangled in the plot, and things don't go quite as planned.
Stepping out in style
Village theatre company Front Row will be performing musical play Stepping Out at Eaton Bray Village Hall on 17th, 18th and 19th April.
The show, written by Richard Harris, is about the lives, laughs and loves of a group of people attending a weekly tap dance class held in a dingy north London church hall.
Director Wendy Baker said: "The cast of 10 have been working extremely hard, not only developing their characters, but also perfecting the different tap dances.
"Rehearsals have been great fun and it promises to be a very funny play."
Performances take place at Eaton Bray Village Hall on Thursday April 17, Friday 18 and Saturday 19. Doors open at 7.30pm with performances beginning at 8pm.
There is a licensed bar and tickets cost just £7 each.

Let's Pretend
by Vanessa Brooks
Thurs 17 - Sat 19 May 2007, 7.30pm
Eaton Bray Village Hall
The hotel Nova Paradise may have seen better days, but it's still a home away from home for the long-stay British pensioners wintering in Majorca. When the arrival of a young couple, booked into the hotel by mistake, coincides with a near-riot by hotel staff, the many layers of deceit peel away with increasing speed. The play runs the gamut of human emotions, striking a fine balance between comedy and poignancy.

Missing body mystery!
After a break of a year, popular local theatre group Front Row returns to Eaton Bray Village Hall this week with a period comedy murder mystery. 'Wanted - One Body' by Charles Dyer is set in a spooky country mansion following the death of its owner, Mr Barraclough.
When solicitors arrive to read the will, they discover the body is missing from its coffin!
What part has Faith, his stepdaughter played, who is Nikkamopoloffkis and what has George got to do with it? Add to this an eccentric doctor, a miserable undertaker and assorted domestics and you have a very complex mystery!
How the solicitors solve it, with many other twists and turns along the way, makes for a very funny evening's entertainment.
So ditch the TV for a night and support your local community talent!
The play runs from Thursday June 8 through to Saturday June 10 and tickets are priced at £6. The play begins at 8pm and there is a licensed bar from 7.30pm.
Call the box office now on 01525 222 283.
