SUMMARY:Tom\, Dick & Harry
DESCRIPTION:Tom and his wife are about to adopt a baby — it’s the happiest day of their lives… or at least it would have been if Tom’s well-meaning brothers\, Dick and Harry\, hadn’t decided to “help.” \nTheir efforts quickly spiral out of control\, resulting in two illegal immigrants\, a van full of contraband cigarettes\, and one very inconvenient dead body! \nWith the arrival of the Supervisor from the Adoption Agency and the local Police Constable\, Tom’s quick thinking is pushed to the limit. But surely things can’t get any worse… can they? \nOh yes\, they can! \nDick and Harry’s ever-helpful plans go from bad to utterly disastrous\, adding a Russian Mafia mobster and a reality TV crew into the mix. Then it really starts to get complicated! \nWe’re thrilled to present this Amateur Community Theatre Production\, by special arrangement with Samuel French Ltd and Play Bureau Ltd.
