CFF24: Diary of a Badminton Player

This event will be taking place in the Auditorium.

CFF24: Diary of a Badminton Player

Colin Cosgrove is a busy man. He’s running badminton training sessions, his supply teaching job is going ‘great guns’ and his food delivery work keeps him busy on a Saturday night. But then it all starts to go a little bit wrong. Is he losing his mojo? Can he get it back? Can he maintain his status as a top badminton celebrity in Worcester? 

Diary of a Badminton Player is a show about the difficulties of ageing and finding things to do all while trying to remain a local hero. Enjoy this hilarious sequence of shenanigans and take one of Colin’s badminton lessons, learn to draw and maybe even offer him large sums of money! Will things continue to go downhill, or is there hope for him and all of us as we write the next chapter in our lives?

Find out more and learn some pro sporting moves along the way!

Suitable for all ages and players of all racket sports. 

Reviews:

“Diary of a Badminton Player” is an absolute triumph, a feel-good play that is relatable and poignant as it is hilarious. - Cybergeek Girl

The performance was fantastic; a thoughtful balance of themes which prompted the audience to consider what it is to grow older, the frailty of the human condition and how we live our lives through local microcosms. The comedic element of the show was always handled sensitively and often segued seamlessly with the more poignant material – Audience Member

I loved the concept of the audience being in a care home. Your style and comedy was spot on. My belly hurts from laughing. - Audience Member
