The Killing of Sister George

by Frank Marcus

“𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙆𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙎𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙂𝙚𝙤𝙧𝙜𝙚” is a comedy play, written in the 1960s, as a farcical comedy. It’s a tragi-comedy with adult themes. The characters are really very amusing, and we hope you will find this show very entertaining.

June Buckridge is a cruel and bullying woman. She plays the sweet and caring character “Sister George” in a very popular radio drama series.

June lives with Alice McNaught. Alice is often verbally and sometimes physically tormented by June.

When June discovers that her radio character might be killed off, she becomes increasingly impossible to work and live with.

Mercy Croft, an executive at the radio station, comes to help – but has she got an agenda of her own?

That was great! Our first visit and you did not disappoint. Really funny and well performed - Bravo!

I really enjoyed myself tonight, well done to all involved! A very difficult play to put on but I thought it was funny, had lots of energy and strong performances. Great entertainment, thank you.

Saw this last night. It's fantastically entertaining and all credit to the cast for delivering some very challenging dialogue.
