Under The Sun Productions in association with the New End Theatre present the world premiere of
AN ELIGIBLE MAN
By Rosemary Friedman
Directed by Ninon Jerome

With Grainne Gillis, Maggie Hallinan, Malcolm James, Patricia Potter, Sonia Saville and Graham Seed.

A charming and charismatic recently widowed Hampstead judge struggles to throw off his burden of grief. As he does his best to come to terms with the baffling mysteries of domestic life, from which his late wife has always protected him, he is surprised to discover that as an attractive and eligible widower in late middle age he is much in demand. He finds himself pursued by three very determined women desperately looking for new husbands. With which of them will he find the happiness he has lost and the contentment he is seeking? The efforts of the women to ensnare him, in which no holds are barred, are played out in a touching and hilarious comedy of grief by bestselling author and playwright Rosemary Friedman.

Wednesday 30 April to Sunday 8 June 2008. Tuesdays to Saturday at 7:30pm. Saturday and Sunday at 3:30pm

Tickets £18 Concessions £15

A christmas message from Tish!:

"Hello! Just a quick message to wish anyone visiting the website a very very Happy Christmas!

It's been a bit of a mad year for me what with Jim and I becoming engaged, having the chance to be in an episode of Extras, and of course, my making the decision to finally leave Holby after 5 years on the show (which I'm absolutely terrifed about I have to admit!). But there's a while to go yet for Diane so I'm looking forward to enjoying the rest of my time at Holby and some good storylines.

But for now, thank you for your continuing support of the programme. It really does mean so much to all the people who are in it as well as those who work on the show behind the scenes. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!

Lots of love from Tish x"
