"Get one wedding in a family, and it goes through the lot like measeles!"
Harold Brighouse’s classic comedy from the cobbles of Lancashire. The hilarious trials and tribulations of bombastic boot-shop owner Henry Horatio Hobson and his three uppity daughters in 1880’s Salford.
When Hobson teases his eldest, and most headstrong, daughter Maggie about being past the marrying age, she promptly retaliates by marrying his best boot-hand, Willie Mossop, and setting up a rival shop. Hobson’s future looks uncertain. As a battle of wills ensues between father and daughter, can the hapless Willie triumph?
This timeless tale never fails to amuse and entertain in equal measure.

In Shakespeare’s funniest comedy, battle-weary heroes return from the First World War with their thoughts turning to romance...
"When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married."
In Shakespeare’s funniest comedy, battle-weary heroes return from the First World War with their thoughts turning to romance.
Benedick and Beatrice are “horribly in love”; they mock each other, feign disinterest and hurl insults until they are duped into declaring their true feelings.
Meanwhile, the dastardly Don John and his comical sidekicks plot to scupper any romances. Can the incompetent WPC Dogberry and the riotous ladies of ‘the watch’ foil their plans?
From the directors of 2013’s hit The Comedy of Errors, this hilarious production is full of witty love-duelling, comic villains and crazy chases.
