This August, join Firwood Waterloo Rugby Club for Play Under the Posts as they present Off The Ground’s first public performance of Jason & the Argonauts on Friday 1st August at 6.30pm.
Embark on an epic adventure in this unique setting, with Jason and his band of heroic Argonauts.
See how Jason uses all his strength and wit to evade the beastly Minotaur, how he and his gang avoid certain doom from the women on the Isle of Lemnos, and how they evade the lure from the enchanting sounds of the Sirens…and ultimately win in the quest for the Golden Fleece.
Can Jason survive and return home to claim his right to the throne?
This is the first time Firwood Waterloo Rugby Club have organised such an event. Speaking of the initiative Dave Raywood, club Chairman, said, “We are very excited to be bringing Off The Ground to the club, I can highly recommend it as a night out for all the family and we are keen that as many people from Waterloo and Crosby area come so we can make this an annual event.”
Bring a picnic, something to sit on and watch how the mighty Gods of Greece, Zeus and Hera, play with human lives to satisfy their own desires. A summer show not to be missed, packed full of song, sword fighting and heroic adventure across the sea.
Tickets for this unique event can be bought in person at the Firwood Waterloo Rugby club or Email: admin@waterloorugby.com or telephone 0151 924 4552. Tickets are priced at £11 for adults, concessions for £8 and children for £5. Firwood Waterloo Rugby Club can be found at The Memorial Ground on St. Anthony’s Road, L238TW.
This is an outdoor production and will be performed whatever the weather. The organisers welcome picnics and encourage you to bring something comfortable to sit on : Please note no glass or umbrellas are to be brought to the performance
Off The Ground Theatre’s first production was in 1994 with a contemporary revival of John Osborne’s Look Back in Anger. However, the highlight of the first year was undoubtedly the open-air production of Twelfth Night, which toured stately homes in North Wales and Northwest England. The tour has been extended over the years and subsequent tours have played to full-houses both in the U.K. and Ireland. OTG also produces touring theatre shows for performance in theatres, outdoor venues and school.
Off the Ground Theatre believes in giving as many people as possible the opportunity to partake in theatre. All their tours operate a strong youth policy which means employing young professionals we aim to provide training to those who wish to expand their skill-base, employment to those embarking on a career, and a fine evening’s entertainment to those who want a night out!
