Theatre By The Lake

Peter Macqueen returns to the SJT after his recent appearance playing Admiral Rankling in The Schoolmistress, this time as Herbert Pinnegar...

Pottering amongst the seeds and cuttings of his ramshackle greenhouse, now in his twilight years, he recounts his journey from orphan boy to legendary head gardener 'Old Herbaceous' and of his friendship with the lady of the manor, Mrs Charteris. Sown with seeds of wisdom, this charming one-man show is a love story... with plants.

A humorous portrayal of a single-minded, gentle yet passionate man.

"a delightful show - and not just for old codgers and plant lovers!" - Cumberland News.
