The Dumfries Guild of Players perform Richard Everett’s ‘Entertaining Angels’ this October from the 11th-13th and 15th . Tickets available on ticketweb.co.uk, or at the Midsteeple box office.
Reviewed in the Sunday Times “Richard Everett has written a warm, glowing, serious comedy, like an Ayckbourn play finished by JM Barrie”
‘I’ve poured two hundred thousand cups of tea, made four thousand six hundred medium-sized quiches and personally baked two tons of light crust pastry. And for what?’
As a clergy wife Grace has spent a lifetime on best behaviour. Now, following the death of her husband Bardolph, she is enjoying the new-found freedom of being able to do and say exactly as she pleases. But the return of her eccentric missionary sister, Ruth, together with some disturbing revelations forces Grace to confront the truth of her marriage. Set in a classic English vicarage garden complete with a grass-banked stream and willow, the play is filled with sharp-edged comedy and probing wit.
Tickets priced at £10 per adult. £8 per Concession and Guild members.
