Charley’s Aunt at The Watermill, Newbury
11 October @ 2:30 pm
A brand new adaptation of Charley’s Aunt opens at The Watermill Theatre, near Newbury, on Friday October 3 and runs until Saturday November 15. Based on the play by Brandon Thomas, the new adaptation has been written by Rob Madge, the award-winning creator of My Son’s a Queer (But what can you do?)
Two scheming students, Charley and Jack, must circumnavigate the curmudgeonly Spettigue to declare their feelings to love interests Amy and Kitty. The promised arrival of Charley’s Aunt gives them an opportunity and the best laid plans are set.
One delayed arrival, one fortuitous arrival and lots of classic comic confusion later, the champagne is finally poured at a dinner party to remember. Mistaken identities, new identities and the discovery of true identities, will love – old and new – triumph through it all?
