AN HILARIOUS tale of lust, confusion, divorce and discarded underwear ending up on lampshades is the next production to be staged by Weymouth Drama Club.
Popular comic playwright David Tristram's Unoriginal Sin is a bizarre love tangle with comic consequences.
Eve (Nicola Dench) is 24 and never been kissed; well, not properly, while Bill (Chris Walker) is 35, rich, alcoholic, and with the sex drive of an adolescent bull on steroids.
Eve is engaged to Neville (Sean Isaacs), Bill is married to Jenny (Antoinette Woollven). Jenny wants a divorce and is having an affair with someone called Jeremy (off-stage), but she remains utterly devoted to her husband's cheque book.
Miles (Dave Moore) is Bill's best friend - or at least he was, before he discovered Bill's underpants hanging from the lightshade in his bedroom.
Then there's Father Tomlin (Simon Raynes). At least he's taken a lifelong vow of celibacy, or so his daughter Eve claims.
Can you keep up with all that?
"It's great fun but quite confusing," says Antoinette Woollven.
"It's funny, quite tongue-in-cheek but there are also some pretty poignant moments in it.
"We've had a real laugh putting it together with director Deborah Walton and I think audiences will like the results!"
Unoriginal Sin is playing at the Warehouse Theatre, Hope Street, Weymouth, from Tuesday to Saturday, March 23 to 27, at 7.30pm. Tickets, £6, are available from the theatre box office on 01305 776151.
