See How They Run

A classic farce to kick off 2025. In an English vicarage, the vicar and his new wife are overwhelmed by a battery of guests, including an American G.I. stationed with the Air Force in England, a cockney maid who has seen too many American movies, an old dowager who “touches alcohol for the first time in her life,” a sedate Bishop aghast at all these goings-on, and four men in identical clergyman suits, one of whom is an escaped prisoner. You’ll be in stitches all night long!
