Welcome to Huntingdon Drama Club’s production of Silhouette Director’s Notes The action takes place at Martin Powell's country home in Sussex. In Act One we watch as the police investigate the murder of Martin Powell and arrest their prime suspect. In Act 2 we see the events leading up to the murder - has Inspector Bruton got the right person in custody? I'm so lucky with this production to have such a wonderful cast. This is a difficult play - and so many lines to learn! They've done a fantastic job and I'm very proud of them. However the cast are only the tip of the iceberg as far as any production is concerned, and I can't thank enough my co-director Chris Topham. Chris has not only worked with the actors but has also been behind the scenes with an input into every aspect of the technical side of the production. Further huge thanks to Rachael Orchard who as producer has quietly organised publicity and tickets, liaised with various backstage departments and provided general support throughout. The remaining unsung and unseen heroes are of course Bob Pugh as stage manager, Carol Wadey on costumes, Mike Dawson on sound, Richard Meredith Jacquie Spencer Director of Silhouette
