A FANTASTIC French farce will be romping its way to The Mill at Sonning this week.
Don’t Dress For Dinner, written by Marc Camoletti and directed by Ron Aldridge, takes a spoonful of silliness, a dash of double entendre and lashings of laughter to create a feast for the funny bone.
With his wife out of town, an alibi from his best friend Robert, and Suzette, a Cordon Bleu cook, lined up to prepare gourmet delights, Bernard thinks he’s planned the perfect romantic weekend for his glamorous French mistress, Suzanne.
But when Bernard’s wife, Jacqueline, hears the news that her secret lover Robert – ooh, la, la – is visiting for the weekend, she decides to stick around for a surprise tryst of her own.
An evening of hilarious confusion ensues as Bernard improvises at breakneck speed! Suzanne becomes the cook, Suzette becomes the lover, the wife becomes increasingly suspicious and the friend is completely bewildered.
Full of misunderstandings, mistaken identities and marital infidelity, Don’t Dress For Dinner has all the hallmarks of a perfect night out!
Don’t Dress For Dinner opens on Thursday, May 11 and runs until July 1. Tickets start at £46 which include a two-course meal and coffee. For more information and to book visit www.millatsonning.com or call the Box Office on 0118 969 8000.
