Rossendale Players will kick start their new season with the classic 1920s comedy, Hay Fever.
The roaring Twenties will come to the New Millennium Theatre, in Waterfoot, during the run of the Noel Coward comedy, from Saturday September 28 to Saturday October 5.
The ‘delightful comedy of manners’ is about a quintessentially, yet very eccentric, English family called the Blisses.
Misjudged meetings, secret seductions and scandalous revelations reach fever pitch as four guests come to stay for the weekend.
Hay Fever will be the first production of the Rossendale Players’ new 2013/2014 season, and rehearsals are now well underway.
Director, Jean Teasdale will lead an ensemble cast, which includes Penny Griffin as Judith Bliss, Stuart Marshall as husband David Bliss, Helen Lockett as daughter Sorrel Bliss and Daniel Starkie as son Simon Bliss.
Playing the family’s housemaid Clara is Maureen Jackson, while John Spencer, Dorrie Partington, Geoffrey Collinge and Siobhan Morris play the family’s unsuspecting guests.
Tickets cost £7, except on opening night when they will be £10 including a glass of port served with cheese.
Tickets are available from 01706 228720 or in person from Watts News on Burnley Road East, Waterfoot, next door to the theatre.
