Woking Drama Festival 2023
Angels - Youth Entry
'Angels' is written by Pauline McLynn, Father Ted's very own Mrs Doyle. We find a group of wayward souls in a community project to clean up the local graveyard. Watched over by three angels, they discover more than they bargained for amongst the weeds in this place where little rests. Music, hilarity, halos and a little touch of magic take them on a journey of self-discovery.
