Comedy: Old Actors Never Die
When? 13 Nov 2017 to 18 Nov 2017
Where? Portland
From the people who brought you 'A Vicar of Dibley Christmas', comes the Royal Manor Theatre's latest hilarious comedy entitled: 'Old Actors Never Die; They Simply Lose the Plot!';
A play by Lyn Brittney will be performed from Monday 13th to Saturday 18th November.
Directed by Becky Chance & Lis Green, the play is set in the Mount Home for Retired
Actors, a home for the elderly like no other. Three women who are ex-wives to the same
womanising actor, Edmund Sullivan, reside here, and welcome the arrival of Walter Neville, a small-part veteran of hundreds of films, and an old friend. All is well until Edmund Sullivan arrives on the run from Russian gangsters. The ladies decide that their ex-husband needs to
be saved, which runs into a truly daft journey of farce and great comedy.
