When Lord God is persuaded by retainer Gabriel to take a holiday in a Devonshire seaside hotel (to get Him out from under His angels feet), He looks forward to a fortnight filled with tennis, cream teas and the latest Agatha Christie. But the presence of campaigning atheist Prof. Minty Tweddle and her fianc, caustic drama critic Rex Addison, leads to all manner of supernatural scrapes, japes and narrow escapes and the invention of a hot new global dance craze. 1920's-set comic musical from best-selling author Philip Reeve and playwright/composer Brian Mitchell, writers of the 'Pugs of the Frozen North' stage show and 'The Ministry of Biscuits'. The cast includes comedian Joanna Neary (BBC2s 'Ideal'), Murray Simon ('Underdogs') and Emma Wingrove ('Sweethearts' & 'The Hooligan'). Produced by the Argus-Angel-winning company, whose many awards include OffWestEnd.com's prestigious OffFEST Award for Theatre, Brighton Fringe 2022."Classic songs and tippity-top performances. Plus some rhyming that made my toes curl with pleasure! It was delicious." (Terry Garoghan)."The latest vintage-inspired slice of Englishness from the engagingly skewed Foundry Group.... Clever lyrics and sparky lines... Sweet, gentle, full of heart.... a huge hit with the crowd." (Philippa Hammond, Sussex Playwrights Reviews)."Absolutely fantastic! Brilliant performances and excellent songs. Still raving about it..... Really brilliant show." (Nick Pynn).The show lasts 1 hour and 55 minutes including a 20 minute interval. Performed outside in a garden.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.
