This all-new script is penned by the sitcom’s creator Michael Aitkens\, and directed by Tony Award winner David Grindley. The cast of nine is led by Olivier Award-winning McAuliffe and Holland. \nAll the favourite characters from the original series are reimagined for 2017\, facing the challenges that come with growing old disgracefully in the era of the silver surfer. At Bayview Retirement Home\, battle-axe extraordinaire Diana Trent conspires with new resident Tom Ballard to give the conniving manager his comeuppance through a hilarious conspiracy with unexpectedly heart-warming results. \n \n\n“Waiting for God proved less a bittersweet elegy of old age decline than an affirmation of the adage that while there’s life\, there’s hope.” BFI \n“Nichola McAuliffe’s timing and delivery are impeccable.” The Guardian \n*Please note\, Roy Hudd will no longer be appearing in this production. \nPrice includes a £1 contribution to our heritage fund. \n URL:https://www.malvern-theatres.co.uk/whats-on/waiting-for-god/ CATEGORIES:Plays ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.malvern-theatres.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/waitingforgod_web_3.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
