Stephen Moffat’s The Unfriend is coming to Harold Wood!
March 11-14
Guildonian Players are delighted to bring you Stephen Moffat’s new dark comedy, only just available for amateur theatre. First performed in Chichester in 2022, transferring to the West End where Lee Mack took on the lead role, it’s a hilarious and satirical look at middle-class England’s disastrous instinct always to appear nice!
While on holiday in 2021, Peter and Debbie befriend Elsa, a lusty, Trump-loving widow from Denver, USA. She’s less than woke but kind of wonderful. They agree to stay in touch – because no one ever really does, do they?
When Elsa invites herself to stay a few months later, they decide to look her up online. Too late, they learn the truth about Elsa Jean Krakowski. Deadly danger has just boarded a flight to London! But how do you protect all that you love from mortal peril without seeming, well, a bit impolite? Because guess who’s coming … to murder!
Performances are 8pm nightly on 11-14 March plus 2.30pm Saturday matinee. Tickets just £9 from guildonian-players.sumupstore.com or call 07762 133620 to reserve and pay on door.
If you need a jolly good laugh, come to The Little Theatre! (RM3 0DU)
