ME AND MY GIRL

Show to be presented from June 18-25

Brief Synopsis: Bill Snibson, a Lambeth costermonger, is revealed to be the new Earl of Hareford and his newly-discovered aristocratic relations are horrified. Bringing him to Hareford Hall, they attempt to educate Bill into ways of the gentry and to separate him from his cockney girlfriend Sally. The result? Chaos of a most comical kind! With a host of hilarious characters, witty one liners and several toe tapping, uplifting songs (including the famous Lambeth Walk, The Sun Has Got His Hat On and Leaning on A Lamp Post). Me and My Girl is a sublime and sunny treat for all fans of musical comedy.
