Other People’s Secrets

a collection of short plays to keep you guessing

 

A collection of short plays exploring the power of secrets to change lives: a moment confiding with a stranger; a revelation from your nearest and dearest; a world turned upside down in a single conversation… An evening of comedy, drama,  thriller and farce. Rare Fortune Productions are delighted to return to the OSO with their company of professional actors and the creative team who brought you Life Changes and From This Day Forward.

‘What a treat!  A gloriously entertaining locked room murder mystery… beautifully constructed, deliciously witty, wonderfully played.  Such an entertaining evening.  Congratulations, Rare Fortune.’

Recent Work

The Ghost Train by Arnold Ridley
revived by Jocelyn and Nicolas Ridley

 

We were delighted to perform a rehearsed reading and recording of this classic play that has delighted theatre-goers for nearly 100 years.

Arnold Ridley’s son Nicolas Ridley was keen to make a few small changes to the original script to make it easier to perform and more likely to be staged. The results were brilliant and all the actors loved the chance of getting to grips with such an energetic and entertaining script.

Even sitting around a table and reading from scripts, the characters and drama came alive.

No spoilers to this exciting plot,  but this very scary and entertaining play is as fresh today as it was when Arnold Ridley wrote it in 1927.
