A.A. Milne One Acts
Draper Historic Theatre
Presented by Draper Arts Council
at Draper Historic Theatre
November 6-November 7, 2009
The Milne one-act plays are Before the Flood and The Man in the Bowler Hat: A Terribly Exciting Affair. The director, Gordon Jones, advises the public that these are not children's shows, despite the playwright's reputation. Flood deals with Noah and his family before the rain starts, and Hat is a kind of melodrama in which 'exciting things' happen to two very unexciting people.

This production was unbelievable! Far better than I had expected! The actors were extremely talented, and the costumes were absolutely stunning! It was as close to a broadway show as it gets. I would recommend this production to anyone, it was phenomenal. I am going back on Monday with my family!

This is the best community production I have ever seen. The actors were great, the costumes were phenominal and it kept us entertained through the whole show. My 6 month old baby was fascinated by it. This is a wonderful activity for people of all ages. You'll be glad you went!
