THEATRE | A Bunch of Amateurs

31 October 2024 - 19:30 - 9 November 2024 - 22:00

£12.50
Knutsford Little Theatre in the heart of Knutsford

By Ian Hislop and Nick Newman

From an original story by Jonathan Gershfield and John Ross.

Keen to boost his flagging career, fading Hollywood action hero Jefferson Steele arrives in England to play King Lear in Stratford – only to find that this is not the birthplace of the Bard, but a sleepy Suffolk village. And instead of Kenneth Branagh and Dame Judi Dench, the cast are a bunch of amateurs trying to save their theatre from developers. Jefferson’s monstrous ego, vanity and insecurity are tested to the limit by the enthusiastic am-dram thespians. As acting worlds collide and Jefferson’s career implodes, he discovers some truths about himself – along with his inner Lear!

This amateur production of “A Bunch of Amateurs’ is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk

Performances on 31st October, 1st November, 2nd November, 7th November, 8th November and 9th November.
