Theatre 2000

Theatre 2000 makes a welcome return to the Regent Centre with Stiles and Drewe's recent musical comedy Betty Blue Eyes, which made its debut at London's Novello Theatre in 2011. Adapted from Alan Bennett and Malcolm Mowbray's hilarious film A Private Function, this utterly British feel-good show is positively bursting with eccentric characters and is sure to send you out into the night with a smile on your face.

It’s 1947, and in austerity Britain belts are being tightened and rationing is still in force. Betty, an adorable pig, is being illegally reared in the northern town of Shepardsford to ensure that the local dignitaries can celebrate the forthcoming Royal Wedding with a lavish banquet while everyone else has to make do with spam – but can her bacon be saved before it’s too late?

There’s a pig in the house, and she'd love to meet you.
