Our final production for 2001 is a "comedy for mature adults".
The Memory of Water, first produced in London in 1996 was the winner of the Laurence Olivier Award for best comedy in 2000.

Three sisters meet on the eve of their mother's funeral. as the conflicts of the past converge. everyday lies and tensions reveal the particular patterns and strains of family relationships.

"The dialogue sparkles"
"A deeply felt, richly funny family study of the pervasive power of the past"
and from the Daily Telegraph - "This is a lovely piece, full of homour and heart, this is an exceptionally rewarding evening, combining high comedy with an unsentimentasl depth of compassion"
Phone Bookings open on November 1. Postal bookings open from now on.
