Based on the hugely successful British television series that ran for seven seasons, this uproarious comedy relates the adventures of a hapless cafe owner, Rene, in occupied France.
You can see all of your favourite TV characters in the flesh, including Rene's tone-deaf wife Edith, Gestapo officer Herr Flick and his companion Helga. And, of course, Michelle "of the Resistance" Dubois - "Listen very carefully, I will say this only once" ...
The show was performed by the Belfrey Theatre, Wellington, Shropshire
from
8th to 10th May 2014.
