See How They Run at Sandycove

Submitted photo See How They Run will take place at The Wheel in Sandycove Acres May 23 to 25.

Last year's hit by the Sandycove drama ensemble carries on this year.

Pool's Paradise continues with even more characters and wild antics in See How They Run. This rib-tickling English farce is situated in the vicarage of the Rev. Lionel Toop. His life is a constant trial, living with Penelope, his lovely and unpredictable (ex-actress wife) and his irreverent maid Ida. And to make it even worse, Miss Skillon a priggish old maid with an unhealthy interest in Toop drops in much too often. Miss Skillon touches alcohol for the first time in her life with hilarious results. Add to the mix an escaped prisoner, an air-force pilot and a visiting bishop. Two of them, wishing to hide their real identity, swear to the bishop that they are Toop. All of these characters dash in an out of the vicarage creating situations that "leaves the audience exhauster from laughter".

Directed by Ruth Hambleton and produced by Rosemary Matos, this is a not-to-be-missed event. Everybody is welcome to attend.
