Brassed Off
ver its 138 year history, Stape Silver Band has played at many venues both locally, nationally and internationally. More used to the contest stage or concert platform, the band recently spent four nights over the Easter Weekend appearing at the Whitby Pavillion Theatre, in the Whitby Amateur Dramatic Society’s production of ‘Brassed Off’. ‘Brassed Off’ tells the story of the fictional Grimley Colliery Band during the closure of the pits in the 1990’s. The play directed by Katrina Stead required the female members of the band to be dressed as men with the addition of some dubious wigs. As well as performing some quite difficult music, including the march Florentiner, and the gallop from the William Tell Overture (The Lone Ranger theme), there was also the opportunity for band members to display their acting skills. The music featured also included Rodrigo’s Concerto De Aranjuez – affectionately referred to as ‘orange juice’ - which was performed by our very own ‘Gloria’ - Beth Breckon on Flugal Horn.
