I've just discovered through Twitter that Allestree has a theatre group - it's been going strong since 1961 - and their next production is:


Table Manners by Alan Ayckbourn
30 October to 1 November 2014
St Nicholas Church, Allestree Lane, Allestree

Table Manners is the first of three plays in Alan Ayckbourn's "trilogy", The Norman Conquests. 

All three plays (Table Manners, Living Together, and 'Round and 'Round the Garden) take place simultaneously - when one character leaves, say, the dining room setting of Table Manners, he/she walks into the garden or living room sets of the other plays and the action continues. 

Each play does stand alone, with Table Manners being the acknowledged "funniest" of the three (acknowledged by critics and Ayckbourn himself). The plays are set in England and are very "British."
