Synopsis
The Ladykillers is a classic thriller farce set in 1950s London, England. A sweet little old lady, alone in her house, is pitted against a gang of criminal misfits.
Posing as amateur musicians, Professor Marcus and his gang rent a ‘rehearsal room’ in the lopsided house of sweet but strict Mrs Wilberforce. The villains plot to involve her, unwittingly, in Marcus’ brilliantly conceived heist job. But, when Mrs Wilberforce becomes wise to their ruse, Marcus concludes there’s only one way to keep the old lady quiet. With only her parrot, General Gordon, to help her, Mrs Wilberforce is alone with five desperate men. Who will be forced to face the music?
An evening of hilarity with characters improvising at frantic speed.
