Theatre Royal Bath Presents
Enjoy!
By Alan Bennett
Starring Alison Steadman
Enjoy is a rarely-performed gem by one of theatre’s greatest observers of the English way of life. Written in 1980, Alan Bennett set this dark comedy in his home town of Leeds where an ageing couple are living in the city’s last back-to-back. With the demolition of the area in progress, Wilf and Connie are soon to be re-housed in a brand new maisonette with a waste disposal unit and non-slip vinyl flooring! When a
sociologist comes to observe them in their daily life, normality takes a decidedly a typical turn… With its cast of fifteen extraordinary characters and a stunning visual denouement, Enjoy promises to be an absolute theatrical treat. Alison Steadman is one of our bestloved and most prolific actresses. On stage, she created the role of the monstrous Beverly in Mike Leigh's Abigail's Party and starred in The
Rise and Fall of Little Voice, for which she won an Olivier Award. Her films include Shirley Valentine, Clockwise and Life Is Sweet.
