Ruyton Amateur Theatrical Society AGM

Message from Ann Johnson, RATS.

Ruyton Amateur Theatrical Society (RATS) holds its AGM at 7.30pm on Wednesday July 1st, in the Victoria Rooms.

We would welcome visitors to the meeting, to hear about previous and upcoming activities the Society has planned, including this year's pantomime. RATS has been an active organisation in Ruyton for 30 years, but desperately needs an injection of new members in order to keep going. We always need actors, but at present very much need help behind the scenes too.

If you think you might be interested in knowing more or offering your time, then we would be delighted to see you at the meeting (which is only short!) where we can have a chat and discuss various opportunities.

Please come along and meet us. If you can't make it, you can contact us via Facebook or by calling 01691 661498

A passionate tale of lust, seduction and betrayal, no other opera boasts as popular a following as Bizet's Carmen. Set during the dying days of Franco's Spain, Calixto Bieito's acclaimed production of this must-see opera has been enjoyed by audiences across Europe.

Writer-director John Boorman's long-awaited sequel to 1987's Hope And Glory follows the now 18-year-old Bill Rohan (charismatic newcomer Turner) as he's conscripted into the army.

Bill and his mate, working-class rogue Percy (Landry Jones, God's Pocket), fall foul of their officers (including David Thewlis and Richard E. Grant) with pranks and badly timed insubordination. Further subplots in this pacey, spritely tale also find Bill narrowly avoiding the fighting in Korea, falling for a posh and borderline depressive beauty (Egerton, Chalet Girl), and enjoying uncertain relationships with his immediate family in their idyllic Thameside home while on leave.

Although appealing particularly to those who loved Boorman's semi-autobiographical prelude, the beautifully shot Queen And Country will entrance 1950s nostalgia buffs as well as anyone who loves a great comedy drama.

"★★★★ a moving portrait of a nation that couldn't account for all it had lost in a war that it won" — David Ehrlich, Time Out New York

Not far from Timbuktu, now ruled by the religious fundamentalists, Kidane lives peacefully in the dunes with his wife Satima, his daughter Toya, and Issan, their twelve-year-old shepherd.

In town, the people suffer, powerless, from the regime of terror imposed by the Jihadists determined to control their faith. Music, laughter, cigarettes, even soccer have been banned.

The women have become shadows but resist with dignity. Every day, the new improvised courts issue tragic and absurd sentences. Kidane and his family are being spared the chaos that prevails in Timbuktu. But their destiny changes when Kidane accidentally kills Amadou, the fisherman who slaughtered "GPS," his beloved cow. He now has to face the new laws of the foreign occupants.

Timbuktu was Mauritania's first entry for the Best Foreign Language Film Academy Award.

"Breathtakingly Beautiful" The New York Times Stephen Holden

"Not just a timely movie, a great one...Timbuktu feels at once timely and permanent, immediate and essential." The New York Times A.O. Scott

Self-obsessed New York author Philip Lewis Friedman rose to prominence with his debut novel, Join The Street Parade. He is poised to release the follow-up entitled Obidant but has grown weary of the promotional duties that go hand-in-hand with being a writer. When Philip's boorish mentor Ike Zimmerman offers him sanctuary at an isolated summer home, the egotistical young writer jumps at the opportunity to obsess about himself in seclusion.

Director: Alex Ross Perry
Cast: Krysten Ritter, Elisabeth Moss, Jason Schwartzman, Jonathan Pryce.

"it's as if Woody Allen dipped his pen in cyanide and directed a film in which the pithy misanthropy of Philip Roth has seeped into every frame. Listen Up Philip, the third film from Alex Ross Perry, who was only 28 when he made it, is a bold, unforgiving examination of the writer's psyche." **** -The Times

Kinokulture cinema and Booka Bookshop have joined forces to celebrate the publication of 'Go Set a Watchman', the sequel to Harper Lee's 'To Kill a Mockingbird' - one of the most iconic and widely read novels of the 20th
Century.

On February 3 2015, Harper announced that Go Set a Watchman, a novel the Pulitzer Prize-winning author completed in the Fifties and put aside, will be released July 14. Rediscovered last autumn, Go Set a Watchman is essentially a sequel to To Kill a Mockingbird, although it was finished earlier. The 304-page book will be Lee's second, and the first new work in more than 50 years.

Go Set a Watchman is published on 14th July. To celebrate we're returning to Maycomb with Scout and Atticus Finch with a special screening of the Oscar winning film To Kill a Mockingbird, starring Gregory Peck.

We have a number of ticket options available including first edition copies of Go Set a Watchman in hardback.

Gregory Peck won an Oscar for his brilliant performance as the Southern lawyer who defends a black man accused of rape in this film version of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. The way in which it captures a time, a place, and above all, a mood, makes this film a masterpiece.

The setting is a dusty Southern town during the Depression. A white woman accuses a black man of rape. Though he is obviously innocent, the outcome of his trial is such a foregone conclusion that no lawyer will step forward to defend him - except Peck, the town's most distinguished citizen. His compassionate defense costs him many friendships but earns him the respect and admiration of his two motherless children.

To Kill a Mockingbird won Academy Awards for Best Actor (Peck), Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Art Direction. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

BAFTA winner and Academy Award® nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave) takes the title role in this dynamic new production of one of English drama's oldest plays, directed by the National Theatre's new Director Rufus Norris (Broken, London Road).

Everyman is successful, popular and riding high when Death comes calling. He is forced to abandon the life he has built and embark on a last, frantic search to recruit a friend, anyone, to speak in his defence. But Death is close behind, and time is running out.

One of the great primal, spiritual myths, Everyman asks whether it is only in death that we can understand our lives. A cornerstone of English drama since the 15th century, it now explodes onto the stage in a startling production with words by Carol Ann Duffy, Poet Laureate, and movement by Javier De Frutos.

This production contains depictions of recreational drug use and frequent uses of strong language.

MR HOLMES is a new twist on the world's most famous detective.

1947, an aging Sherlock Holmes returns from a journey to Japan, where, in search of a rare plant with powerful restorative qualities, he has witnessed the devastation of nuclear warfare. Now, in his remote seaside farmhouse, Holmes faces the end of his days tending to his bees, with only the company of his housekeeper and her young son, Roger.

Grappling with the diminishing powers of his mind, Holmes comes to rely upon the boy as he revisits the circumstances of the unsolved case that forced him into retirement, and searches for answers to the mysteries of life and love - before it's too late.

"It's a rare film that gives a completely new perspective on a character like Sherlock Holmes, but Mr Holmes has done so beautifully. Directed by Bill Condon and based on Mitch Cullin's novel, A Slight Trick of the Mind, Mr Holmes is a triumph, a slow burning and completely absorbing mystery, with a strong emotional core." **** The Upcoming

In the melting pot of Venice, trade is God. With its ships plying the globe, the city opens its arms to all, as long as they come prepared to do business and there is profit to be made.

With the gold flowing all is well, but when a contract between Bassanio and Shylock is broken, simmering racial tensions boil over. A wronged father, and despised outsider, Shylock looks to exact the ultimate price for a deal sealed in blood.

Hot from her lavish production of 'Treasure Island' at the National Theatre, Polly Findlay tackles Shakespeare's troubling tragedy. Her previous credits include 'Arden of Faversham', which played in the RSC's Swan Theatre as part of the Roaring Girls season. She also directed 'Protest Song' at The Shed at the National Theatre.

Oscar nominee Michael Fassbender leads the cast of this visually beautiful Western adventure. The year is 1870. Young Scottish aristocrat Jay Cavendish (Kodi Smit-McPhee) is besotted with Rose (Caren Pistorius). However, she has recently ventured overseas to America with her father. Determined to win her heart, Jay travels to America in pursuit. Arriving in Colorado, he runs into drifter Silas Selleck (Michael Fassbender), with whom Jay teams up to discover Rose's whereabouts. However, unbeknownst to Jay, Silas is out to collect a bounty on Rose's head. Dynamic, mercurial actor Fassbender, acclaimed for the likes of 12 Years a Slave, Shame and last year's offbeat comedy Frank, heads up this visually breathtaking western, one that mixes pistol-toting action with quirky humour to unique effect. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes actor Smit-McPhee further consolidates his rising star status, and the cast also includes Australian character actor Ben Mendelsohn, most recently seen in Biblical epic Exodus: Gods and Kings.

Guy Myhill delivers a quietly electrifying debut, set in the depressed countryside of Norfolk.

Taylor (newcomer Liam Springs) is 16 and spending his summer helping his mother (Sienna Guillory) ready their roadside greasy spoon for the busy holiday season. Both live under the vigilantly watchful eye of his Mum's controlling, vicious boyfriend (Sean Harris) who, in a fit of rage, causes an accident that hospitalises Taylor's brother.) He also takes cruel pleasure in undermining the boy's hesitant attempts at friendship and romance.

Recalling Harmony Korine and Duane Hopkins without ever being derivative, Myhill orchestrates his collaborators with skill. From pumpkin field to amateur racetrack, cinematographer Simon Tindall shines, providing woozy, drunken summertime images of dilapidation and corrosion, set against the glorious awkward beauty of youth.

Luke Abbott's electronic score is an uncomfortably effective contrast to the decaying rural setting, underlining the inherent violence in one generation giving way to the next.

"A fiercely atmospheric coming-of-age drama and an intelligent essay in classic Brit social realism that is well acted with a beautiful evocation of the East Anglian landscape" **** The Guardian

The hilarious little helpers finally get their own movie in this eagerly anticipated spin-off adventure.

Since the dawn of time, the Minions have served a variety of masters - the dinosaurs, the Ancient Egyptians, Dracula. Unfortunately, due to their bumbling nature, the Minions have inadvertently bumped off each and every one of them!

Fast-forward to the 1960s and the Minions are looking for a new master to serve. Their quest brings them to New York, where they discover the world's first female supervillain, Scarlett Overkill (voiced by Sandra Bullock). It seems that the Minions have finally found who they are looking for.

Since they first appeared in the smash-hit Despicable Me movies, the Minions have become some of the most popular animated characters of all time with their loveable nonsense language and fondness for chaos. Now they finally get a movie all to themselves. The excellent vocal cast includes Gravity superstar Sandra Bullock and Mad Men's Jon Hamm.
