ALAN Bennett's comedy The Lady in the Van comes to the New Victoria Theatre, Woking, this month from November 29 to December 4, starring Susan Hampshire.
Two icons of the British theatrical landscape join forces in this hilarious drama, direct from West End success, where it received huge critical and public acclaim.
Famous for his entertaining monologues, Alan Bennett brings his unique humour and style to this irresistible comedy.
When a decrepit Bedford van grinds to a halt opposite Alan Bennett's house in Camden Town, little does the writer suspect that its next parking place will be his own garden, where its evil-smelling occupant is to remain for a further 15 years!
One of Britain's best-loved actresses, Susan Hampshire (pictured above) plays the eccentric Miss Shepherd.
Since winning Emmy awards for her performances in The Forsyte Saga, The First Churchills and Vanity Fair, she has enjoyed great success in Relative Values and Monarch of the Glen.
With Alan Bennett's inimitable dry humour this comic delight is dramatic dynamite!
Tickets, costing from £10, are available from the box office on 01483 545900 or online from www.theambassadors.com/woking
