NO, NOT ANOTHER SYNODICAL PRONOUNCEMENT, but an hilarious – birthday treat – evening at Keswick’s Theatre by the Lake, and one of Alan Ayckbourn’s best.

[an] evening of mishap, misunderstanding and music from the ever-popular master of modern comedy – bound to strike a chord with anyone who’s ever taken part in an amateur stage production!

Priceless! The setting beside the lake, the stunningly executed ideal of performing arts surrounded by some of the most spectacular scenery in the UK, the full-hearted and delighted laughter of another packed house. Truly one of this damp summer’s delights.
