2020

WADS staged Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle, the adventures of an eccentric family, the Mortmains, struggling to live in genteel poverty in a decaying castle during the 1930s. The first-person narrator is Cassandra Mortmain, an intelligent teenager who tells the story through her journal. It is a coming-of-age story in which Cassandra passes from being a girl at the beginning to being a young woman at the end.

WADS also hosted another Poetry and Prose evening - this one entitled Winter Tales, and done over Zoom.
