Our play for 2010 will be 'Allo 'Allo by Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft, directed by Susan Pickles.

The show will be performed at the Memorial Hall, Old Windsor, SL4 2RN from 25th to 27th March 2010. The box office is now open on 07717 671765.

The action of the play takes place in and around the Café René in occupied France, 2nd World War.

Based on the hugely popular TV comedy series, the stage version of 'Allo 'Allo follows the adventures of René, the hapless café owner in war-torn occupied France, as he and his wife, Edith, struggle to keep for themselves a priceless portrait stolen by the Nazis and kept in a sausage in their cellar. René is hiding two British airmen and is endeavouring, with the help of the Resistance, to repatriate them. However, communications with London through a wireless disguised as a cockatoo add to the many embarrassments he endures in the company of his patrons. Matters come to a head with the news that the Führer is to visit the town and the café becomes filled with tricksters intending to impersonate Hitler before the event. René will need all the wit he can muster to save his café and his life...!
