Alan Bennett’s rarely performed Enjoy shines a whole new light on Britain’s favourite playwright.

An elderly couple are living in the last back-to-back in Leeds. They’re about to be re-housed in a brand new maisonette, complete with waste-disposal unit and non-slip vinyl flooring. As the bulldozers rumble and homes tumble, a way of life is fast disappearing. But that’s where sentiment bumps into surrealism. When a sociologist comes to observe Wilf and Connie’s daily life, things take a distinctly peculiar turn...

This comedy stars renowned actress Alison Steadman (Abigail’s Party, The Rise and Fall of Little Voice and, most recently, Gavin & Stacey)and David Troughton (starring roles with the RSC, Dr Who and A Very Peculiar Practice).

This is a delightful and unexpected side of Alan Bennett: gentle nostalgia and wicked satire in equal measure combine to make this an unmissable evening.

'Richly enjoyable'  The Guardian
'The writing, as you’d expect, is pin-sharp' Daily Telegraph
'A piece ahead of its time, downroarious and heartily recommended' Independent
'The one-liners are as blackly hilarious as anything by Joe Orton' Financial Times
