TOURS 2010
Tour #6 -
“SEE HOW THEY RUN”
See How They Run is a true British farce, written in the 1940’s to entertain
British troops in WWII.
It has
all the necessary elements of the farce: a prim and proper local spinster
who is sure the Vicar’s wife is having an affair, with a myriad of other
eccentric characters, and of course, the requisite mistaken identities.
Indeed, the Vicar’s wife has a sketchy past – she was an actress until she
married the Vicar, and she was seen brazenly waving at a soldier.
But her uncle is a Bishop and he is coming to visit.
Unfortunately the Vicar won’t be preaching this Sunday when the
Bishop visits; a travelling clergyman will be taking the pulpit.
Add to this a crazy maid, a Russian spy and a cop.
What more could one want in a farce?
For
fans of the British farce, this show offers laugh-out-loud fun.
