For immediate release
Thame Players’ next production is a classic black comedy based on a famous Ealing Studios film of 1955, The Ladykillers. In the plot, Professor Marcus and his gang of robbers, posing as amateur musicians, rent rooms from a sweet and eccentric old widow, Mrs Wilberforce, while they plan their next heist. Mrs Wilberforce lives alone with her raucous parrot in a gradually subsiding and lopsided house, built over the entrance to a railway tunnel at Kings Cross, London.
