  3. Out of Order by Ray Cooney


This fast-paced comedy revolves around government minister & serial philanderer Richard Willey, whose plan to spend an evening at the Westminster Hotel with opposition secretary Jane Worthington starts going disastrously wrong when a body is found trapped in their room's unreliable sash window. With Richard desperately calling on his secretary George Pigden to help with his increasingly tangled web of lies and deception, there’s more confusion with the arrival of Jane's husband Ronnie, an unscrupulous concierge, a frustrated hotel manager, and Richard's wife Pamela.

Winner of the 1991 Laurence Olivier Award for Best Comedy, Ray Cooney's Out of Order has been a global hit ever since. Don’t miss director Reg Williams bringing this side-splitting farce to you along with our awesome cast! –
