The Knaresborough Players present the hilarious An Evening with Gary Lineker on the !0th to the 13th May.
In Italy, England are preparing for their most important football game in 24 years – the World Cup Semi-final vs West Germany. In Majorca, Bill and Monica are on holiday trying to rekindle their troubled marriage.Monica dreams of an affair with Gary Lineker, the ‘Queen Mother of Football’, though in fact she has other secrets to keep. Circumstances change when a friend of Bill’s, the travel writer Dan Hudson unexpectedly arrives at their hotel, and together, in the company of Bill’s colleague Ian and Birgitta, the local German tourist rep, they settle down to watch the game on TV. Through ninety minutes, extra time and the infamous penalty shoot-out, the field of battle switches between the hotel and the Italian football pitch as Monica, Bill and the England team approach the inevitable.
The Knaresborough Players present this hilarious script from Arthur Smith and Chris England which was originally staged in 1991 and adapted for TV in 1992 starring Paul Merton Caroline Quentin and Martin Clunes. It’s about football but… not about football. More importantly it’s about love, life and pickled onions.
The show runs nightly from Wednesday 10th May to Saturday 13th May at 7.30pm, doors open at 7pm. Tickets are £10 (£8 concessions) and are available from our online box office at www.frazertheatre.co.uk, from The Old Chemist Shop, Market Place, Knaresborough or by calling 07835 927965.
