Janet Ellis and Jan Ravens in
GREEN FORMS
by Alan Bennett
Directed by Paul Clayton
Also starring Andrew Alston


Every large organisation has its procedures and protocols. Surrounded by forms and paperwork, Doris and Doreen are determined that none of them should create any work for them. That is until a surfeit of PS104 forms threatens to form a shadow over their lives.

This rare revival of Alan Bennett’s hilarious one act play, GREEN FORMS, sees actress and broadcaster, JANET ELLIS, return to the stage in a production staged in aid of MAGGIE’S CANCER CARING CENTRES

Janet is Patron of Maggie’s Centre London, one of a growing network of cancer caring centres.

After training at The Central School of Speech and Drama, Janet began her acting career in Jackanory Playhouse for BBC TV. She worked in many theatres around the country, including Richmond Fringe at the Orange Tree, Royal Exchange Manchester, West Yorkshire Playhouse, Harrogate Theatre , Richmond Theatre and The Roundhouse. TV appearances included everything from Doctor Who to The Sweeney, and four years in the award winning children’s programme Jigsaw.
