Pentabus Theatre Company

It’s Elsie’s birthday. You are invited to the village hall to celebrate with us. Bring your friends, bring your family or just bring yourself, there will be cake!

Elsie has lived here for 60 years, she has seen elections, weddings, wars, people coming, people going. The village is where her daughter grew up, it’s where her husband died and it’s where she’s going to stay. Travel through time from 1953 to the present day and help Elsie fight to stay where she belongs. Join us for a sensitive, charming and honest portrayal about village life and the right to grow old in your own home.

How does the changing rural landscape and the challenges it offers influence your choices? At what point do you have to admit defeat?
