Captive audience
Wimborne Drama Club have had captive audiences for their last production, set in a women’s prison.
The Enquiry unravels tragedy, pathos and comedy from the tangled lives of the inmates and staff of the prison. Personalities and principles clash as the motley assortment of characters play out a story, which promises a twist at the end.
The play, at the Allendale Centre, finishes its run tomorrow.
