The Newnham Anonymous Players (or N.A.P as otherwise known) are an up and
coming theatrical force, with a history of experimental theatre and some rather
daring performances. The society's performances are more often than not based
in Newnham's own theatrical space, The Old Labs - a versatile studio with a fab
lighting rig and box, excellent atmosphere and a projection screen for the arty
among you.

For all the Freshers; keep a look out for N.A.P gatherings in the coming term,
and do come and introduce yourself to us at the college societies fair.

For all the olds; the times they are a -changing, come get involved in radical
new developments and exciting things! Involving drama and bawdy meetings!

Eyes peeled y'all...watch this space for NEWS OF UPCOMING SHOWS AND AUDITIONS!

Currently, N.A.P President Laura 'Pixie' Hounsom is busy directing a production
of William Shakespeare's Lost Play 'Cardenio', in a two week tour of Devon, as
well as a three week run at the Edinburgh Fringe. Re-worked by Bernard
Richards, the author of previous 4 star N.A.P production 'Ted and Sylvia in
Cambridge', this is definitely one to watch! An exclusive and original script
re-imagining one of the most hotly debated plays attributed to Shakespeare!

To get involved, please email Pixie (President) at lmh57@cam.ac.uk, or Alashiya
(Treasurer) at ag519@cam.ac.uk.
