The Happiest Days of Your Life by John Dighton
We will be performing this farce in the autumn. Casting will be on Thursday 27th June at 7.30 pm in the function room of The Sun. Rehearsals will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting from mid-end August.
Set after World War II, this delightful comedy is about what happens when a boys' school receives the news that they are to billet another school. But thanks to a bureaucratic mix-up, they wind up sharing their quarters with the pupils and teachers of an all-girls’ school whose own buildings have been a casualty of wartime bombing. The harried headmaster and principal try to keep visiting parents from discovering the dilemma as the whole thing turns into a battle of the sexes.
