Southwold Summer Theatre ~ While The Sun Shines, by Terence Rattigan

Our closing tribute to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. On his wedding-eve, young Earl Harpenden has put up a drunken American soldier he met the night before. When Harpenden’s fiancée turns up, the lonely American flirts outrageously, thinking she is Harpenden’s ex, West-End doyen, Mabel Crum. This sparkling Romcom with the laughs of a perfect Farce shows both the author’s dazzling stage-craft and his belief that, even in the darkest of times, there is still love, hope and laughter.
“A masterpiece … outstanding in every way” (The Times).
