Charley's Aunt

Creative Cow, in association with Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, Guildford, is bringing Brandon Thomas’s extravagant Victorian farce, Charley’s Aunt, to The Atkinson, Southport’s brand new cultural hub, for a four-day run.

Creative Cow tours the UK with two productions a year.

A British classic which found success on Broadway, Charley’s Aunt takes audiences back to 1892, where dashing Oxford undergraduates, Jack and Charley are preparing to propose to Amy and Kitty, two lovely young girls, but a chaperone is needed for the evening and as luck would have it, Charley’s Aunt is arriving from Brazil (where the nuts come from) and will happily serve the purpose... or will she?

It runs from June 24-29.
