Directed by Dave Goodall

Saturday 19th – Saturday 26th November 1983 in the Auditorium

Written in 1943 and first performed in New York, this gentle comedy was subsequently filmed with James Stewart in what he considered to be his most enjoyable role.

“He was always so calm about any sudden change in plans. Take your average man looking up and seeing a big white rabbit, he’d do something about it. But not Elwood; he took that calmly too and look where it got him”.
