A Beatles tribute band, a mysterious wardrobe and a murder all feature in plays created for this year's oneACTS 2011 festival.

The week-long feast of new playwriting comes to the cornerHOUSE arts centre in April.
This year, the event features nine scripts by local playwrights.
The plays, which have never been staged before, are between 15 to 30 minutes long. Four will be performed on one night and five on another, on alternate evenings throughout the April 4-9 run.
"There's some great plays in the festival this year,” said oneACTS chairman Jon Constant. “There’s a real mix of high quality, entertaining drama and comedy - something for everyone to enjoy.
"The oneACTS is a great way for talented local playwrights to get their voice heard, but it’s not all just about the playwriting, we’ve got a lot of talented actors who auditioned for the 40 roles available and we are looking forward to seeing them bring these plays to life for the first time on stage.
“It should be a cracking week.”
The festival at the arts centre in Douglas Road, Surbiton, is in its seventh year and has become a well established and highly respected part of the local arts scene.
The plays in this year’s festival include:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday: Counterfeit by Ian Lewis; Usual Sir? and He’s Looking at Me by Tim Harrison; Shrine by John Ryan; The Inspection by Andy Garbett.

Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday: One of Us is Lying by Colin Irwin; Woodpeckers and Barry Manilow by Ian Hey; Broken by Christina Reeves and The Wardrobe by Andy Garbett.
