A Bad Dream - A Play

Set against the backdrop of Edward VII's coronation, the Bellingford Amateur Dramaticks Society prepares to stage A Midsummer Night's Dream. The diverse cast includes local youth, daughters of businessmen, and a wealthy sponsor with a passion for theater. Tensions rise when this sponsor is murdered, intertwining the drama with historical events like Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee and the advent of fingerprinting. The narrative explores the characters' dynamics and societal changes, commemorating the Sutton Amateur Dramatic Club's centenary.
