Southwold Summer Theatre - See How They Run, by Philip King
See How They Run, by Philip King Southwold Arts Centre, St Edmunds Hall Wednesday 30th July to Saturday 9th August 2025 The ultimate English Farce, produced during the height of WWII. In an idyllic English village, the resident busy-body is convinced that the ex-actress vicars wife is having an affair. Classic mistaken-identity mayhem follows, with a handsome visiting actor, a baffled Bishop, a clueless locum priest, an escapee German POW, banging doors, missing trousers, and a madcap chase with almost everyone claiming to be the real vicar. On the West End opening night, three German flying bombs exploded nearby. No-one budged until the final curtain. 1940s Brits really did Keep Calm and Carry On Laughing! Running time approximately 2hrs with interval. Tickets 16 or 22 depending on location. Evenings Wednesday to Saturday 7:30pm and Matinees 4pm on Thursdays and Saturdays. (Not Sundays, Mondays or Tuesdays). For further information, disabled access, or group bookings please call 01728 343344. Suitable for all ages - we look forward to welcoming you. Also at Aldeburgh Jubilee Hall Monday 21st to 26th July.
