The Green Room Club’s latest production is set to be a bit of a ding-dong.

A fantastic farce is showing at West Walls Theatre from 19 – 24 March. Ding Dong, adapted from the French play, Sexe et Jalousie is written by Marc Camoletti, the same talent who brought the classic Boeing-Boeing, performed in 2013.

Audiences can expect hot air and hilarity, as the charade centres around Bernard, who has just discovered that his wife, Jacqueline, is having an affair with Robert. Being a reasonable businessman, Bernard gives Robert two options to compensate for the affair, either he will sleep with Robert’s wife in order to keep things even, or he will have him killed.

Needless to say, Robert chooses to let Bernard sleep with his wife. Scheming to woo her, Bernard arranges an evening meal with both couples. But of course, this French farce is never going to be straightforward, and a whole new set of complications develops.

Ding Dong is directed by Jack Lester, who moved to Carlisle from Middlesbrough five years ago to study performing arts at the University of Cumbria. Jack joined the Green Room Club in 2013 and during his time there has impressed centre stage as well as behind the scenes. His latest role was as Stanley in January’s production of ‘Broadway Bound’. This will be the second play he has directed after the success of last year’s production of ‘Blithe Spirit’ at the Green Room.
