The Suicide Club (WW1 Play) (2018)

Bingham performance ‘The Suicide Club’ was a moving one Act play about a real-life local soldier to commemorate 100 years since the end of WW1. The play is based on the diaries of David Polley and was written by Darren Rawnsley (a Lincolnshire playwright and poet) and Alan.C.Mott (a historian and Grandson of David Polley).

A fitting tribute to commemorate the soldiers who fought for our country 100 years ago. We were also thrilled to be able to bring you a talk at every show from the grandson of the focal point of our play – Mr Alan.C.Mott.  This moving tale brought to life through the cast of Bingham Theatre Company. …all of this is included in the same ticket price!

As part of the build up to this show, our cast and crew also performed at the Village Hall in Denton as part of their memorial celebrations.
