Absurd Person Singular

Cast

Lesley WolowiecLesley Wolowiec has gone from playing the academic sleuth in the recent Agatha Crispie to the empty headed housewife in today’s performance.  She comes from a dramatic family having met her husband Jaczek at a school performance where he was handling the technical bits as he is today.

 

Andrew LeachAndrew Leach is a long serving member of PaDS having being involved in acting and producing since the early 1980s. His recent roles include Hecules Greycells in ‘Agatha Crispie’ and as the sailor in the Victorian Melodramas. Such are his talents that he is sometimes loaned to other groups for a considerable fee.

 

Maggie DrakeMaggie Drake has become typecast as an alchaholic – can’t think why. Her recent roles were as the drunken wife in ‘Seasons Greetings’ and today as the drunken wife once again. She has performed for PaDS in many roles for many years (she started as a child actress!) Maggie’s other skills include set painting.

 

Lynne GibsonThis is Lynne Gibson’s second appearance in a PaDS production. The first was as the ‘born again virgin’ in a Victorian melodrama. Since then she has gone downhill badly performing today as a neurotic, pill swallowing wife. Lynne is also responsible for make up and costumes.

 

Maggie DrakeGrant Ninnes is a migrant from Canada stooping off in Painswick for a few years to enjoy the warmer climate! He often stars in the more amorous roles for PaDS. He performed last year as the writer in Seasons Greetings and this year as poor Eva’s philandering husband.

 

Kevin ParkerKevin Parker is a veteran of PaDs recent performances. He has played a wide range of roles from the evil villain Sir Eustace Makepiece to the cranky evil old Uncle Harvey in ‘Seasons Greetings’. He also directed the widely acclaimed (well by him anyway) recently staged Agatha Crispie.

 

Jack BurgessJack Burgess is a key figure in the re-birth of PaDS. He has directed two reviews’ a couple of Victorian melodramas and last Christmas’s Ayckbourn comedy. Some memorably over-the-top performances include Scrooge in Christmas Carol and a pathetic Archibald in Agatha Crispie. Many years ago in a far off land, he was also a particularly libidinous Geoff in Absurd Person Singular.
