LWTC presents ‘Darlings, you were wonderful!’
The Lucerne World Theatre Company will be performing the one act play “Darlings, you were wonderful!”, which will be presented later in the month at the FEATS festival in Germany.
“The Amazon Theatre Group is to perform a little-known but passionate Spanish drama at a festival. With general backstage chaos, jealousies, unravelling friendships and a missing cast member, can the show go on? Or will the backstage tensions spill over into the production and thwart the director’s hopes for dramatic triumph?”
Come and support your local English theatre group!
All money collected will go towards paying for the costs of taking the show to Bad Homburg.
Stay for drinks after the show.
Where: Aula Wartegg, Warteggstrasse 11, Luzern, CH

We’re sharing our experiences, our lows and highs and our way of coping with the situation. The important message is that you are not alone – there are others who experience the same! Life is always worth living even with depression or other mental health issues.
The group meetings will take place every two weeks from February 1, 2023, Wednesdays from 7-9pm
