Tragic Loss of Hydrae Actor Jane Fletcher

On Thur 11/Fri 12 Dec, founder Hydrae member,, Jane Fletcher, died suddenly and unexpectedly in her sleep. Our Summer show "Conflicts of Interest" is dedicated to Jane. Our thoughts remain with her partner, family and closest friends.

Those of us in Hydrae who had the privilege to know her, will always remember her great acting talent, comic abilities, sense of humour, passion and zest for life, but especially her support for all her many friends and colleagues just when they needed it. She will be so very missed.

Hydrae 2003/4 Scriptwriting
Hydrae has linked up with another group called Script2Stage, which specialises in linking up writers' scripts with actors, directors and production companies, to select scripts for the next Hydrae Productions 3 week show booked for the first three weeks in May 2004 at the Rosemary Branch Theatre in Islington, N1. We regret that we have had to suspend normal ScriptShop meetings due to other commitments.

the company Hydrae Productions was founded in April 1998 by a large group of directors, actors and writers who met at The City Literary Institute ('The City Lit') in Holborn, London, England. Famous City Lit graduates include Steven Berkoff and Richard Wilson. Hydrae performs original new drama, specialising in short plays to date. It has staged eight successful shows at London fringe theatre venues: the King's Head, the Hens and Chickens (both in Islington), the Union Theatre on the South Bank, the Landor in Clapham, the Barons Court Theatre, the Tabard in Chiswick and the Rosemary Branch (also in Islington). Each performance consisted of 5-8 short plays, most written by Hydrae's own writers. The majority have played to sell-out audiences. Hydrae's members contribute as actors, writers, directors, technicians, stage management, composers and designers. We are open to new members who have experience in these areas and are willing to make contributions on a voluntary basis. New members can join by attending one of the ScriptShop meetings. It is intended to update this site at least fortnightly, and weekly if possible. Please check regularly for updates and late changes. For more information, have a look at the rest of the site, or contact Steve Tyrrell on the Hydrae phoneline 020 8400 7817 or any member of the "board" on the contacts page.	stop press!
