The play heads to the Grindleton Pavilion on Saturday as part of its world premiere, kicking off at 7-30pm.

A clandestine meeting at the Phoenix pub gets heated, as the villagers rack their brains for new ways to fight the imminent housing development that threatens village life as they know it.

The discovery of an ancient Roman site under foot may just throw them a lifetime if they can somehow authenticate their mysterious findings.

But things aren’t always what they seem!

And there will be double the laughs when the situation turns “ballisticus maximus”.

This hilarious production stars Jack Alexander, of both The Lowry and Derby Playhouse, and is based on an original idea by Jez Lowe.

Music maestro, Jez, is also the brains behind the original songs. You can expect big things from this SONY award-winning singer-songwriter, who has worked on BBC Radio 2’s Radio Ballads project.

She co-founded Badapple Theatre in 1998 and went on to devise the first of their inspiring Theatre on Your Doorstep productions in 2006.

Admission costs £12/£10 and is £6 for under 16s.
