Farce is hard to get right, but the comings and goings, double-takes and cheeky dialogue are all on point.
A cast of seven boasts no weak links and an excellent sense of timing. Four actors return from the successful 2019 run at the same venue and clearly relish the opportunity to come back to this feast of fun.
