THE CLODLY LIGHT OPERA & DRAMA SOCIETY

A new high farce loosely based on Aristophanes' Lysistrata

Candy Frinton is leader of the Clodly Light Opera And Drama Society (CLODS), she is also the only member - until tonight. Following Candy’s call to arms, a small nucleus of interested new female members, and one man, assemble in Clodly village hall.

The women are having difficulty with their men; their promiscuous, spendthrift and warlike ways, are clearly screwing things up for Clodly.

The women decide to do something about it - by putting on a play... Candy’s choice is Lysistrata by Aristophanes - in which the women of Athens go on sex strike until the men mend their ways, are kind to their women, and let peace and harmony come to the world.  

But who is the intriguing victim of amnesia discovered that night in the village hall broom cupboard?

Tickets: £11 and £6.50 concessions
