"The Happiest Days of Your Life"
Saturday 29th January 2022
Harleston Players present "one of the funniest plays I’ve ever seen", says director Paul Baker – The Happiest Days of Your Life by John Dighton.
Set in 1947, just after the Second World War, the comedy revolves around the headmaster of a boys’ boarding school receiving word that he must share his campus with the evacuated pupils and staff of another school. He is horrified, however, when the new arrivals turn out to be from a girls’ school led by an indomitable headmistress. Matters get even worse when demanding parents from both schools turn up to check on their precious little darlings! As outright hostilities threaten between the two schools, what could possibly unite them?
Performances at Archbishop Sancroft High School on January 28th (7.30pm) and 29th (2.30 and 7.30pm) and February 4th (7.30pm) and 5th (2.30 and 7.30pm). Tickets, priced £10, available from Robinson’s Traditional Stationers, Harleston, and online. We look forward to seeing you there.
