DRINKING HABITS
We recently held auditoons for our next play but are still looking for some of the characters. If you are interested then please email 'info@newmarketkingstheatre.com' as our director Val would love to hear from you, we are particularly looking for the young male and female roles. This hilarious play 'Drinking Habits' will be performed from Wednesday 19th to Saturday 22nd March 2025.
SYNOPSIS
Accusations, mistaken identities, and romances run wild in this traditional, laugh out loud farce. Two nuns at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing have been secretly making wine to keep the convent doors open, but Paul and Sally, reporters and former fiancées, are hot on their trail. They go undercover as a nun and priest but their presence combined with the addition of a new nun, spurs paranoia throughout the convent that spies have been sent from Rome to shut them down. Wine and secrets are inevitably spilled as everyone tries to preserve the convent and reconnect with lost loves.
