How happily married are the happily married?

Every couple needs a little fantasy to keep their marriage sparkling. But behind the gingham curtains, things start to unravel, and being a domestic goddess is not as easy as it seems.

Frome Drama presents Laura Wade's 2019 Olivier Award winning comedy about nostalgia and celebrating the present. 

Judy Martin is determined to create the perfect 1950s home. But can the perfect housewife's marriage survive in the 2010s?

A sell out at the National Theatre with a subsequent successful transfer to the West End, Frome Drama is proud to produce the first amateur production of this contemporary gem.

It's fizzing full of Old Fashioneds, lively Lindy Hop and the charm of a chiffon layer cake, but this sparkling production is not afraid to take a bite out of gender politics and relationships. 

The local cast under the direction of Jo Chivers (Silence) have been hard at work perfecting their dance moves with instructors from Swing Time Frome. 

 "It's tremendously exciting to be bringing such a fun and fresh play to the Merlin stage." says Producer, Angela Fairgrieve

"Frome Drama is really proud to be one of the first amateur groups to have been awarded the rights to perform this funny but thought provoking piece of theatre. There's been a real buzz about it since our season launch back in November. What with jive dancing, fifties tunes, authentic vintage props , gorgeous costumes, a magnificent set, not to mention our amazing cast and crew, you are guaranteed a wonderful night out at your community theatre supporting local talent."

Don't miss this clever, funny and at times, emotional play at the Merlin Theatre Frome from 30th March - 1st April.
