“A razor sharp and steamy new comedy”
Whatsonstage
By Mark Crawford with additional material by James McDermott
On Gail’s East Anglian farm, the honeybees are dropping like flies – just like her love life. She hasn’t slept with anyone since her husband bolted years ago and her daughter’s marriage is going bust just like her turkey farm.
This hilarious comedy romp has a heart as big as the laughs it brings. Starring comic genius Helen Lederer (Absolutely Fabulous, Bottom) and Michael Starke, (Sinbad in Brookside, The Royal and Waitress).
The Birds and the Bees – it’s the bee’s knees!
The show contains strong language, adult themes and partial nudity – recommended for ages 14+
