See How They Run

Written by Philip King | Directed byDan Clay
Fast, farcical and full of door-slamming chaos, See How They Run is a classic British comedy that delivers non-stop laughs from start to finish.
Set in a quiet English vicarage during the 1940s, the play follows the very proper Reverend Lionel Toop and his spirited wife Penelope. But when a nosy parishioner, a visiting actor, a Russian spy, and a case of mistaken identity all converge under one roof, the result is absolute mayhem. Add in a bishop, a borrowed clerical collar, and a fair bit of sprinting around in ones undergarmentsand you've got a recipe for riotous hilarity.
With impeccable comic timing, absurd situations, and a pace that never lets up, See How They Run is a joyful romp thats as delightful now as it was when it first hit the stage.
A high-energy, laugh-out-loud farce perfect for anyone who loves classic British comedy.
Content warning:The play contains comic depictions of violence, wartime references, and some mild innuendo. Suitable for most ages, though younger audience members may miss some of the subtleties (and the vicar jokes).
Please note: Doors will open at 7pm for evening performances and 2pm for matinees, to allow our volunteers and cast time to prepare the theatre. If you arrive earlier, you may be asked to wait outside. Thank you for your understanding!
