The Ladykillers

by Graham Linehan

Directed and Produced by Malcolm & Lorna Hollister

Based on the Ealing comedy as re-written by Graham Linehan (best known as the author of Father Ted and of The IT Crowd), this play tells the story of a criminal gang who take rooms in an old lady's house posing as amateur musicians, while they plot to rob the mail train. They reckon without their determined landlady and, as their plans start coming off the rails, the comedy darkens and the gang begins to disintegrate.
