Life of Riley
Written and directed by Alan Ayckbourn (Premiere)

is plotting one last final farewell which threatens to upset all their
future lives. What exactly is the eccentric maverick Riley playing
at?

The Price of Everything
By Fiona Evans (Premiere)
Directed by Noreen Kershaw

humble beginnings he now boasts a millionaire lifestyle: exotic holidays,
flashy cars and real designer clothes. Not to mention exclusive country

love.
