Details

A farce which deals with a crazy but very likeable gang of bookies who, in order to be near the racecourse, are staying at a country hotel run by a retired colonel and his wife and daughter. Secret rooms, sliding panels, mistaken identity and a nice little bit of romance are some of the main ingredients of this very racy and slick farce.

Saw this excellent show at Lowestoft on Sept 19th - very professional, very slick, thoroughly enjoyable

USER: 21May12:
a complete load of rubbish.the acting was terrible as if they were taking the mickey out of the audience.It was awful and should of been called rot

John Ahern: 11May12:
Racy ? Slick ? Not on the first night. Even the cast looked a little shamefaced at the curtain.Looked under-rehearsed,but I'm sure it will improve with this cast.
