Don't Dress for Dinner

Bijou Theatre Productions presents; 'Don't Dress For Dinner'

After the intense thriller of Blood Money, and a summer of intrigue with 'A Murder is Announced', Bijou is finishing the year on a much lighter note with this fast-paced and quick witted farce from Marc Camoletti. This is a Bijou debut for Director Julie Sharp, who has directed with great success at Brixham Theatre.

The play;

Set in the living room of a barn conversion some distance from Paris.

Bernard's wife Jacqueline is going away to visit her mother, so he has planned a sneaky romantic weekend with his mistress, Suzanne. He has invited his best friend, Robert to provide an alibi and arranged for Suzette, a Cordon Bleu cook, to create a deliciously intimate dinner. What could go wrong?

Things start to spiral out of control with phone calls, unexpected arrivals and mistaken identities, turning Bernard's carefully planned weekend into chaos and confusion. Then when Jacqueline decides not to go away, the fun really begins. The comedy reaches new heights as everyone has a secret and knows a secret, forcing Bernard and Robert into a frenetic series of mistakes, mishaps and manoeuvres.

Pre-show dining available at the Palace Theatre, advanced booking is essential.
