Foibles is the latest production from the Cawston Players, and will be performed on Nov. 22 to 24.

The Cawston Players are set to debut their latest two-in-one show on Nov. 22.

Foibles will be the Players' second post-COVID-19 production, and will be performed four times over Nov. 22 to 24.

The production is made up of two separate one-act plays, The Sequel by Percival Wilde and He Said and She Said by Alice Gerstenberg.

Foibles is being directed by Amanda Elyzen, who directed the Players' performance of Jenny's House of Joy last fall. 

Starring in The Sequel are Rachael Gurevitch, Melissa Marr, Vanessa Schwoegler and Patrick Bouillet, and starring in He Said and She Said are Robynne Frasch, Karen Gurney, Jamie Periera and Melissa Marr.

There will be a performance in the evening on Nov. 22, with doors open at 7 p.m. and curtain at 7:30 p.m.

Two performances will be held on Nov. 23, with doors open to the first at 1:30 p.m. and curtains at 2, and the evening show with doors at 7 and curtain at 7:30.

The final show will be on Sunday, Nov. 24, with doors open at 1:30 p.m. and curtain at 2 p.m.

Advance are available at the Cawston Marketplace and Westland Insurance in Keremeos for $15. 

The Cawston Players have also provided previews for the show, which can be found here:

In The Sequel, Jack has just proposed to Milly.  

As their excitement and emotion and fond embrace slides into the new reality Milly wants to plan the rest of their lives together. Jack did not plan for this, and he fumbles with his words in attempt to keep Milly interested in him. It becomes clear that the two are not compatible.

He Said and She Said features a living room parlour in the 1920s.

The theme is timeless - that gossip is unexcused, and will suffer sudden calamity - a cautionary tale that urges us to stay out of gossipers' company and not partake of their actions.
