on the 27, 29, 30 will be the
■third production of the season

Charley’s Aunt is a story de
signed to bring tears of laugh

find it difficult to believe. But
you don’t have to believe Char

sit back, watch the mad-cap
antics, and laughter flows
naturally.

two love-struck Oxford stud

effort to please their lady-loves,
(hey invite them to their flat

well until the real aunt returns.
The plot really thickens now.
The real aunt dons a disguise of
her own, and sheer confusion
reigns. This all permeates its
very own unique laughter.

"Antony and Cleopatra”, and
"Picnic.”
