Ian Dickens productions are proud to present the wonderfully funny comedy Come on Jeeves by P.G. Woodhouse. Starring well loved British star Anita Harris, the legendary Victor Spinetti, film and television actor Derren Nesbitt (Where Eagles Dare, Special Branch) and Judy Buxton (On the Up).
P.G. Wodehouse was one of the most outstanding and ingenious writers of the time. He was a remarkable character whose humorous and entertaining writing contains some of the most memorable verbal sparring and witty one-liners ever written.
Whilst Bertie Wooster is out of town, his gentleman's gentleman, the inimitable Jeeves, is on loan to the Earl of Towcaster. The Earl, known as Bill, has been losing heavily on the gee gees, so decides to become a bookie in the guise of 'Honest Patch Perkins' - but it doesn't quite go to plan.
With an unpaid bet, a furious punter on his heels, a loud, wealthy, widowed American clairvoyant wanting to buy his crumbling mansion and his fiancée and his family asking awkward questions, this could be a challenging day for Bill, which only Jeeves can sort out in his usual impeccable style.
This excellent comedy from Ian Dickens Productions follows the success of the recent critically acclaimed productions of Noel Coward's 'Star Quality' and J.B. Priestley's 'Dangerous Corner'
