The programme kicks off from January 3 to 6 with Happy Family by Giles Cooper, a comedy that is completely different. Three siblings, Mark, Susan and Deborah, have never really grown up. Then Susan gets engaged and the introduction of her fiancé stretches the chains of childhood to breaking point.
Disappeared by Phyllis Nagy, from April 4 to 7, is a tense mystery thriller revolving round the disappearance of a female travel agent from a bar in Manhatten. The last person to see her was Elston Rupp, a man who works in a thrift shop and dresses in his clients’ clothes to assume different identities.

Hide AdShakespeare’s The Tempest is the choice for June 27 to 30. A man waits. Robbed of his position, power and wealth, his enemies have left him in isolation. But this is no ordinary man and this is no ordinary island.
Plaza Suite by Neil Simon rounds off the season, from September 26 to 29. This wonderfully funny farce sees three couples successively occupying the same suite in the Plaza Hotel. There is a marriage in tatters, a search for sexual diversion and a mother and father trying to coerce their daughter out of the bathroom to get married - wild and uproarious.
All productions are on at The Barn Theatre, in Southwick Street, Southwick, starting at 7.45pm. The theatre has disabled access and a hearing loop. There is free evening parking in the car park opposite.
