A SHAKESPEARE play with a twist is being performed in Long Eaton.

The Riverside Drama Company will be presenting John Christopher-Wood's comedy Elsie and Norm's Macbeth at the Devonshire Studios, Chatsworth Centre, West Gate, Long Eaton from Thursday, July 10, to Saturday, July 12, at 7.45pm. 

Elsie and Norm fed up with playing Trivial Pursuits and watching Countdown, have decided to have a bash at a bit of culture by staging a production of Macbeth in their living room.

Judicious

After a spot of judicious re-writing Elsie and Norm set out to act out "one of the greatest pieces of literature what has ever been wrote in the English language" 

Playing all the characters between them, the results are hilarious.

Elsie will be played by Liz Turner with Martin Holtom as Norm. 

Director is Liz O'Hara. 

Tickets are priced at £5 or £3.50 for concessions and can be reserved by calling 0115 9170327 or bought in advance from the coffee mornings each Saturday from 10am to noon at the Chatsworth Centre.
