WHEN WE ARE MARRIED Opens At The Garrick, 10/19

WHEN WE ARE MARRIED, JB Priestley's gloriously timeless traditional British comedy about class and hypocrisy, directed by Christopher Luscombe, opens at the Garrick Theatre on the 19th October starring a fine ensemble of West End favourites including Rosemary Ashe, Lynda Baron, Susie Blake, Michele Dotrice, David Horovitch, Roy Hudd, Sam Kelly, Maureen Lipman and Simon Rouse

Joining the ensemble are Vincent Brimble (Romeo and Juliet at Shakespeare's Globe's and RSC company, Stratford and West End), Laura Haddock (Samantha in BBC3's How Not to Live Your Life), Jodie McNee (title role in the Arcola's production of Jenufa), Peter Sandys-Clarke (BBC2's Desperate Romantics) and Tom Shaw (Tim Firth's Sign of the Times).

Set in 1908 in Clecklewyke in the heart of Northern England, three well-to-do West Yorkshire couples - the Parkers, Soppitts and Helliwells - married on the same day, at the same church, and by the same vicar, join to celebrate 25 years of blissful matrimony.

Disaster strikes with the shocking revelation that the vicar who married them wasn't actually licensed - these pillars of the church and the community, aren't as respectably married as they thought they were!

Home truths fly like confetti, an old flame returns and other uninvited guests start to call. With a photographer from the local paper due to arrive, a missing housekeeper and a doorbell that wont stop ringing, can the three couples keep a lid on their embarrassing secret or will the neighbours find out, destroying their standing in the community.

The production is designed by Simon Higlett (Yes, Prime Minister, Collaboration and Taking Sides, Chichester & West End), Lighting by Olivier Award winning designer Mark Henderson and Sound Design by Jason Barnes (Enjoy).

When We Are Married is produced by Nica Burns & Max Weitzenhoffer for Nimax Theatres and Duncan C. Weldon & Paul Elliot in association with Guildford's Yvonne Arnaud Theatre
