Below is a list of stage plays produced by Invent Theatre:
April 2007: The Bench in the Park: Medina Theatre
It is 1940, war has broken out in Europe and all across cities in England air raid sirens howl on a daily basis, signalling another night of raids and deaths affecting thousands of innocent people. The story of ‘The Bench in the Park’ is a story of one such family caught in a conflict they no little about. In the six years of conflict that became know forever as World War II, the last of all wars, the ‘Swift’ family loose almost everything they hold dear. When the announcement comes that it’s all over they are forever changed, and will never live the life they once did.
May 2008; The Asphodel Fields: Shanklin Theatre
‘The Asphodel Fields’ is the story of one woman and her journey to understand and make sense of a confused past. Inspired by a book written by her father, she has led a life of dreams and imagination but now time is running out, and a search to find inner peace with herself will open up all the darkest memories she holds.
June – July 2009 ‘The Button Box’ Island Tour
A tale of three brothers, opera and spaghetti. ‘The Button Box’ follows three brothers who are brought up by a rather eccentric spaghetti loving mother. The middle child, Benjamin Teak, soon meets, though perhaps not by coincidence, a traveller and as time goes by they decide to open a book shop to sell their stories . The books they sell however are not the works of Dickens or Shakespeare but works by themselves about the characters around them. What starts of as a little bit of fun soon becomes their undoing as they learn more about storytelling then they could ever have dreamed of.
Mixed in with a broken radio, an unhappy choir, too much opera, an embarrassing dance and and a fateful encounter. This is the tale of the Button & Teak Bookshop
