Get in quick - the Heretaunga Players’ first show of 2018 returns us to the village of Little Grimley with The Fat Lady Sings in Little Grimley.
Gordon (Andrew Tait), Margaret (Heather O’Brien), Joyce (Janet Beams) and Bernard (Greg Judd) are the surviving members of Little Grimley Amateur Dramatic Society.
They’re back to tackle yet another threat to their survival – this time in the shape of a rival am-dram, newly-formed in their village, determined to upstage them with an award-winning musical.
Season opens April 26. Shows will be performed at The Studio, Ward St and tickets are available from Expressions or by calling 527 2168.
