30 November 2013 www.bahrainthismonth.com happeningsthismonth When? December 3-7 | Event? Snow White musical | Venue? The British Club Fairest of Them All A fairy tale is brought to life in an ambitious musical production with popular culture influences and some local flavour. Do not pinch yourself or doubt your eyes if strolling through the streets of Mahooz in early December. This is because you may encounter seven vertically challenged people in the company of a three-humped camel pursued by a large bear. Such occurrences are rare in Bahrain but that is exactly what Manama Theatre Club, in association with the British Club, is promising theatre-goers. Following the success of last year’s rendition of Sleeping Beauty, the directors have chosen another timeless classic for this year’s show, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. A classic tale of good versus evil, with a damsel in distress, an evil villainess, a handsome prince and an assortment of weird and wonderful supporting characters, make this a quintessential musical comedy. Humour and audience participation are key ingredients of this seasonal offering. Expect to see men playing female roles and vice versa. Written by Alan P Frayn, this version has been infused with some contemporary and local flavour. Your favourite chartbusters provide the musical backdrop to all the action. The cast comprises Bahrainis and expatriates from various nationalities and includes equal numbers of children and adults. The oldest cast member is in his 70s and the youngest just eight years of age. Tickets can be collected from the British Club reception and are priced at BD5 for members and BD7 for non-members.
