Dinner and Theatre The Mill at Sonning

In a wild ride down the Thames, the tranquil river waters turn into a storm in a teapot as Robin Hawdon’s brilliant comedy unfolds!

Picture this. Brash, self-made property tycoon Arthur Bullhead is on a mission to seal the deal of his dreams. But instead of a boardroom, he chooses the quirky setting of his converted riverside barge, the Bunty, for a weekend getaway with the local planning committee chairman and his unsuspecting family. Little do they know, Bullhead’s idea of a relaxing weekend involves more chaos than calm. With personalities clashing like bumper cars at a fairground, the stage is set for a comedy of errors. Bullhead’s shady business tactics clash with the straight-laced Coombes family’s morals faster than you can say “high tide.”

As the weekend unfolds, Bullhead’s antics leave the Coombes in knots, with his offer dangling like a carrot on a fishing line. But will they take the bait, or will they stage a mutiny on the Bunty?! With Bullhead’s skittish wife Mary and rebellious daughter Shirley adding fuel to the fire, it’s a recipe for hilarity that’ll leave you in stitches!
