Five seasoned con men planning an audacious heist think they have found the ideal base. Lodging in the crooked home of a little old lady, Mrs Wilberforce, and disguised as a string quartet, they plan the perfect crime. Will they get away with the money, or have they met their match in the unlikely shape of their landlady?
A new adaptation by Graham Linehan (Father Ted, The IT Crowd) of the classic Ealing comedy, The Ladykillers was a West End smash and enjoyed a successful tour of the UK. This production is presented as part of the Wandsworth Arts Festival 2016.
Under the Blue Sky by David Eldridge
17th - 21st May 2016 at 7.45pm
An award-winning, funny and touching play about the complicated love lives of a group of teachers. From genuine affection through to the regrets of an alcohol fuelled romp, Under the Blue Sky takes you on a roller-coaster ride of lust, love and friendship as it explores the uncertainties, misunderstandings and unexpected results of what it means to fall for someone else.
First performed at the Royal Court, and then reprised at the Duke of York's, with Catherine Tate leading a stellar cast, the Telegraph described the play as 'a dramatically provocative, sexually hot and ultimately heart-warming treat'.
Lady Windermere’s Fan by Oscar Wilde
Tuesday 21st June- Saturday 25th June at 7.45pm
Matinee on Saturday 25th at 3pm
Lady Windermere is young, aristocratic, beautiful and a bit of a prig. Supposing her husband to be unfaithful with the mysterious Mrs Erlynne, to whom Lord Windermere, she discovers, has been secretly paying vast sums, Lady Windermere flees to the arms of her long-time admirer Lord Darlington and so brings herself to the brink of social suicide. More secrets are dangled in front of us, the plot thickens and finally all is well… except that it isn’t - too many compromises have been made.
