About this event
It’s 1959 and three veteran soldiers live out the autumn of their lives in a Retirement Home. But unease is in the air. Their favourite terrace is under threat of invasion and it’s rumoured that one of the nuns is trying to murder some of the residents.
Together they plan their escape. Meanwhile, why does Phillipe keep blacking out? What is Henri’s fascination with the local girls’ school? And why does Gustave want to escape to Indochina with a stone dog?
This charming comedy, translated from the original French by Tom Stoppard, won the Olivier Award for Best Comedy when it premiered on the West End. Camp Theatre Company have been bringing productions to Sterts for nearly a decade and have developed a reputation for high-class comedy and drama productions.
