This marks the 15th year that Theatre3triple2 has presented the festival at the Potato Shed and during that time it has presented a wide range of productions that have all been written by local writers. Ranging from comedy to drama and even tragic tales have all been brought to life during this entertaining festival.

This year there will be two plays written by local playwrights.

You Wouldn’t Understand, written by Rob and Andy Jennings, tells the tale of friendships fertility and IVF and what it means to be a real family.

As the characters meet and question each other’s choices, the story unravels, friendships are tested and challenges faced, all over a friendly cuppa.

Directed by Petrina Dakin this is bound to make you think about IVF and families The Set Up, written by Kim Greer, tells the story of mistaken identities, mayhem and hidden secrets that are let loose as two couples meet on blind dates under the knowing eye of a barmaid who has seen it all.

There will be three performances over the weekend starting with Friday night commencing 7pm followed by two shows on Saturday with a matinee at 2pm and an evening show at 7pm.

As well as the plays there will be music in the lobby, mulled wine and fire pits to help warm you up.
