Event Description
🌿 Laugh Out Loud with The Good Life! 🎭
Step into the quirky world of Tom and Barbara Good, who boldly trade the pressures of the rat race for a life of self-sufficiency in their suburban Surbiton home. The Good Life is a hilarious stage adaptation of the much-loved sitcom by John Esmonde and Bob Larbey, filled with wit, charm, and belly laughs.
🍅 What’s It About?
Tom and Barbara transform their garden into a haven of sustainability – growing fruits and vegetables, keeping livestock, making clothes, and even generating electricity from manure! But their antics turn their lives upside down, much to the dismay of their neighbors, Margo and Jerry Leadbetter, who struggle to maintain Surbiton’s suburban norms.
