Jill Hyem, original writer of TV series HOWARD'S WAY, WISH ME LUCK, THE HOUSE OF ELLIOT and co-writer of the well-remembered TENKO, who returns to her theatre roots with this magical story set in the world's most romantic city. Three women of a certain age gravitate to Paris. There's Nancy, a retired headmistress determined to throw off her shackles. Anna, recently widowed - and free - after years of nursing a sick husband. And Raquel, a divorcee in search of eternal youth and a new toy boy. A feel-good play with laughter and tears, the promise of romance, lovely love and not-so-lovely anger, friendship and loyalty, and the advantages of growing old. Perhaps not La Vie en Rose but certainly a night to leave you charmed, amused, thoughtful - and smiling.

Dramatized from the novel by R. D. Blackmore. Exmoor's haunting beauty dominates this irresistible blend of romance and adventure that is R.D. Blackmore's famous novel, here superbly adapted for the stage. Spanning thirteen years, all the characters are present from the ruthless Doones to the peace-loving Ridds; from the highwayman Tom Faggus to Hanging Judge Jeffreys. But the love of John Ridd for Lorna Doone remains firmly at the heart of the play.Large flexible cast
