Brand New Production – Those That Can’t

Photographer Al Frank Monk http://therochesterphotographer.com/ From the newly founded Maidstone based company ‘Maidstone Productions’ comes a fresh and intriguing theatre production ‘Those That Can’t’ performed at the Exchange Studio, Hazlitt Arts Centre, in August.  Showing the knock on effect of poor teaching and the thirst for good education through a students perspective this production follows a group of students as they begin their second year of college. Enthusiastic and keen because they have a new acting teacher, all of the students believe they will finally get the education they signed up for. Unfortunately their new teacher is far too young for the job and has no experience at all.

The students all have their problems, ambitions and youthful trysts that come with a college education.  The lead, Ben, juggles everything, including a love life that sees him skating on very thin ice as he desperately tries to manage dating two girls at the same time in secrecy.

Maidstone Productions was founded by Daniel Casper last year, the aim being to produce theme based film and theatre while at the same time helping the arts within Maidstone.  Another fantastic arts based company in Maidstone which deserves our support so why not book a ticket to see ‘Those That Can’t’ at the Exchange Studio?Photographer Al Frank Monk http://therochesterphotographer.com/
