March 2026 Season – A Song at Twilight
Presented by: Old Mill Theatre
Written by: Noel Coward
Directed by: Barry Park
Performance Dates: 13/03/2026 - 28/03/2026
This bittersweet comedy is the story of a cosmopolitan author caught in his declining years between two women, one being his wife of convenience for twenty years, the other, one of his former loves.
In the fading glow of a brilliant career, a celebrated writer’s carefully constructed world begins to fracture. When a past lover arrives bearing questions that pierce the silence of decades, long-buried secrets and unspoken truths demand their moment in the spotlight. As past passions ignite and carefully concealed realities unravel, nothing is quite as it seems. Noël Coward’s A Song at Twilight is a searing and poignant drama of identity, betrayal, regret, and the haunting cost of silence—where sharp wit and tender reflections give way to unexpected confrontations, and every whispered revelation strikes like a thunderclap. Prepare to be captivated by a story that sings softly but resonates deeply, where the final act may be the most devastating of all.
Sir Noël Coward played Sir Hugo Latymer in the original production, his final performance.

The Devil, his acrobatic cat and other colourful cronies come to Stalin's Moscow to wreak hilarious surreal havoc on the lives of writers, critics and bureaucrats who have lost touch with their feelings. Satan sends some to the madhouse, stages a devilish play within a play, and gives the lyrical Margarita a whirlwind witch's ride climaxing in a satanic masked ball as she searches for her lover, a writer known as "Master". The novel Master is writing appears simultaneously on stage. His work, politically suppressed, focuses on the moral dilemma of Pontius Pilate in biblical Jerusalem...
September 2026 Season
Table Manners
Presented by: Old Mill Theatre
Written by: Alan Ayckbourn
Directed by: Barry Park
Performance Dates: 11/09/2026 - 26/09/2026
When desire comes to dinner, disaster is served.
Set entirely around the dining table, Table Manners is classic Ayckbourn: comedy built on tension, embarrassment and exquisite timing, where what isn’t said matters just as much as what is. Part of the acclaimed Norman Conquests trilogy and a Tony Award–winning classic, it’s hilariously uncomfortable, painfully recognisable — and utterly delicious.
Pull up a chair.
Mind your manners.
And watch everything fall apart!
