Greg & Ginny are living together but Greg is becoming increasingly concerned that he is not the only man in Ginny’s life! In an effort to get to know her better he follows her to an address in Buckinghamshire determined to introduce himself to whom he presumes to be her parents… Philip and Sheila. The situation becomes increasingly complicated and hilarious as a case of mistaken identity continues to baffle everyone involved. Ingenious comic joy from the pen of Alan Ayckbourn.

It’s 1992 and, for five 16 year-old girls, ‘the band’ is everything. Fast forward 25 years, and the same group of girls, who were once inseparable, reunite in Prague to see their heartthrobs one last time, and try yet again to fulfil their dream of meeting the boy band whose music became the soundtrack to their lives. It’s a story of enduring friendships, loss, love and forgotten promises.

The Band features the music of Take That, one of Britain’s most successful boy bands of all time. Songs include: Never Forget, Back For Good, A Million Love Songs, Greatest Day, The Flood, Light My Fire, Shine and Rule The World to name just a few.
