‘Traitor at The Beeches’ is a comedy drama that follows a group of mature, eccentric Second World War veterans on the hunt for the traitor within their midst.
The play is set in Beeches Manor residential home in the year 2001, and once again the residents find their comfortable, routine-driven life under threat. Pearl, a glamorous new resident from Los Angeles, sweeps in, leaving residents and staff in shock and awe. At the same time as the bombshell of Pearl’s invasion, shattering news arrives of wartime treachery that threatens the residents’ deep-rooted bonds.
Belligerent Colonel, wheeler dealer Walker, mystical Cassandra and no-nonsense Iris need to utilise their long-held skills to unravel the mystery of the traitor’s identity as well as to deal with two new, troublesome housekeepers.
‘Traitor at the Beeches’ is Twyford Drama’s follow-up to Kathy Reid’s successful Spring 2023 production ‘Fight Them for The Beeches’ and promises even more twists, turns and surprising outcomes. This is the third production that Kathy has written and directed for Twyford Drama.
