Waiting For God
Roy Hudd and Nichola McAuliffe star in this new stage production of the classic BBC comedy series Waiting For God, which premières in Letchworth prior to a national tour. Nominated for a BAFTA, Waiting For God delighted television audiences in the 1990s, and this all-new script is penned by the sitcom’s creator.
Directed by Tony Award winner David Grindley, the cast of nine is led by Olivier Award winning performers Hudd and McAuliffe.
All the favourite characters from the original series are reimagined for 2017, facing the challenges of growing old disgracefully in the era of the silver surfer. At Bayview Retirement Home, battle-axe extraordinaire Diana Trent conspires with new resident Tom Ballard to give the conniving manager his comeuppance through a hilarious conspiracy, with unexpectedly heart-warming results.
