Charley's Aunt |
 |
| Royal Exchange - (Tue 22 June to 7 Aug 2010) |
| Charley's aunt is about to arrive and she holds the key to everything. Charley's in love with Amy, but if they're to be engaged before she goes away he'll need his aunt's agreement. Jack's in love with Kitty, but if they're to get together before she goes away with Amy, he'll need Charley's aunt to act as chaperone. So when the aunt's arrival is delayed, Charley's and Jack decide there's only one thing for it. An emergency aunt is called for, and in their desperation they think the eccentric Babberley just might save the day, But whilst the-impostor-aunt starts to play fast and loose with his part, the-real-aunt is getting ever closer, and it isn't long before the misunderstandings and misdemeanours are spiralling out of control in Brandon Thomas' raucous and rollicking farce.

Wife Begins At Forty |
|
| Stockport Plaza - (Thur 31st August to 5th September) |
| The official 25th anniversary production of Ray Cooney's hugely successful comedy with Vicki Michelle ('Allo, 'Allo). It seems that, for some people, forty is a rather traumatic age. For Linda Harper, it certainly appears to be, as she starts worrying three years before her fortieth birthday. She is dissatisfied spiritually and physically with her seventeen-year marriage to the slightly staid George. However following a drunken night, during which George recounts passionate stories involving a flamenco dancer from the top of a grand piano, he moves out. When he returns to the family home a few weeks later to sort out maintenance arrangements with the help of neighbours Roger and Betty, he and Linda discover that the flames of passion are not quite dead, albeit in need of a little fanning! Accompanied by the Central Band of the Royal Air Force, Linda helps George to put the ex back into sex. There is a 2.30pm matinee on the Saturday. |

The Naked Truth |
|
| Stockport Plaza - (Thur 11th to 13th November) |
| This
riotous comedy play, from the writer of 'Girls Night Out' teams up Lisa Riley, star of 'Emmerdale' and 'Fat Friends', with a cast of stars from stage and screen.
The Naked Truth is a hilariously witty play set in a pole dancing class; run by a skilled pole dancer.
It's a woman thing, as five very different women struggle hilariously to conquer pole dancing for a charity event. As their lives unfold and unravel, they bond together sharing laughter and tears in this funny, sad and touching play.
The Naked Truth is an empowering and uplifting comedy for women about women that men must see!
