Habeas Corpus

by Alan Bennet

Directed by: Penelope  Tubbs
Production Dates: 21 - 23 January 2010
Venue: The Roses Theatre

Description

Lust and longing have taken hold of the apparently respectable Eocksteed family - Arthur, his wife, and his hypochondriac son are all in search of some solace.  With a succession of characters ranging from a rampant doctor and a randy vicar to a frustrated  flat-chested spinster and a baffled but wise domestic cleaner, this rollocking farce is as saucy and English as a seaside postcard...
