I'll Get My Man


A farce by English author Philip King.

Performed by STADS at St. Teilo's Church Hall, Bishopston on November 9th, 10th, 15th, 16th & 17th, 1984.


Synopsis

Peter, a famous television series hero, seeks refuge at a country rectory with his mild Uncle Humphrey from all the females who continually chase after him. Humphrey, horrified by the dismissal of his housekeeper by his formidable sister, advertises for a wife, but absent-mindedly omits the important word 'marriage'. Answers to the advertisement arrive by the sack-load and the arrival of the dignified Bishop of Lax adds to the hectic confusion.

Producers's Note

It is with deep regret that we record the death of Mr Bill Payne, a founder member of our society. Bill was our first chairman and served in that capacity and many others for 15 years. A friend and enthusiastic member, we and the whole community will miss him greatly.
