Me And My Girl

Worcester Operatic & Dramatic Society (WODS) are delighted to welcome you to Hareford Hall in Hampshire, the setting for this exuberant and fun-filled 1930s’ musical comedy, with dialogue rewritten by Stephen Fry for the smash hit West End/Broadway production in 1985.

Bill Snibson, a cockney market trader, is revealed somewhat implausibly to be the new Earl of Hareford, much to the amazement and horror of his newly-discovered aristocratic relations! They quickly attempt to educate Bill in the ways of the gentry and to separate him from his cockney girlfriend Sally with chaotic results of the most comical kind.

With a host of hilarious characters and witty one-liners, the show includes a variety of musical numbers and feel-good songs reminiscent of the music hall era including ‘Leaning on a Lamppost’, ‘The Sun Has Got His Hat On’, the title number, and not forgetting ‘The Lambeth Walk’, which became world famous and gave its name to a film version of the show.

The 1980s revival was dubbed ‘the happiest show in town’ and this new production from WODS is certainly guaranteed to get you humming the tunes, tapping your feet and to send you home with a smile on your face.
