Thark cover

A lively new adaptation of the classic farce set in 1920s.

Adapted from Ben Travers' classic comedy.Sir Hector Benbow invites Cherry, a pretty shop assistant, to dine. Arriving home, he finds not only Cherry but Mrs Frush, to whom he has rented Thark, his niece’s Norfolk house. Mrs Frush complains Thark is haunted. To distract Lady Benbow's attention from Cherry, he suggests everyone go to Thark, which lives up to its spine-chilling reputation. A wild night, sinister butler and plethora of romantic mix-ups add to the lively proceedings.

this farcical comedy provides moments of unalloyed comic joy * Telegraph *
