This years Spring Play will be 'Run For Your Wife' by Ray Cooney. Details below.  

 

Run for Your Wife is the story of bigamist taxi driver, John Smith, with two wives, two lives and a very precise schedule for juggling them both. With one wife at home in Streatham and another in Wimbledon, it all goes wrong for him when he is mugged and both of his addresses surface in hospital, leading to investigations by both the Wimbledon and Streatham police. Having upset his schedule, Smith becomes hopelessly entangled in a web of deceit, aided by his layabout neighbour, as he tries to satisfy enquiries from not only the police but his doting wives!

 

This promises to be another hilarious show, and we will be putting it on from 22nd to 26th May 2012, at Roadwater Village Hall.
