Guilds

Every town in Britain elects a Village Idiot, it is now the turn of Haslemere to choose theirs. The current idiot Cedrick (Geoff Lee) is a member of the Slapstick Guild and is standing for re-election.  The candidate for the Wordplay Guild is Amy (Rachel Wood) who is fully expected to win.

As with any election there are undercurrents and plots on both sides but none expects the two protagonists to fall in love

This is an extremely well written piece of musical theatre fairly old school as in Gilbert and Sulivan-esque. One of the constants with this company is the consistently excellent vocal talent of the casts. It is a joy to be in the audience for this show.
