Ampthill & Flitwick Dramatic Society Presents: "Building Bridges" By Colin Calvert. There's a group building a walkway though the local countryside... From the Author: "Building Bridges" is a dark comedy based on a group of environmental volunteers. Personality clashes and power struggles are common to most group activities. The play is based on my own experience as a member of a group building a boardwalk in Ampthill Park. Several incidents - the clash with the dog walker - being mistaken for prisoners - really did happen! However, the real group are terribly nice people and do not include: Bob, a happy-snapping ex-Police Inspector Beryl, a very bossy lady Molly, Beryl's sidekick Clive, a nerdy newbie Mandy, a tart with an ASBO of gold Trish, the hapless manager. The final event in the play would never happen with the real group - at least I hope it doesn't! However, you wouldn't want to see a nice play about nice people and I wouldn't bother writing one. I really do hope you enjoy seeing it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
