Plot Synopsis: See How They Run by Philip King is a classic British farce filled with rapid-fire dialogue, mistaken identities, and nonstop comedic chaos. Set in a quiet English vicarage during World War II, the play spirals into hilarity when a visiting actor, a nosy spinster, a disguised soldier, and an escaped prisoner all converge under one roof—leading to a madcap series of misunderstandings and slapstick situations. With its fast pace, clever plot twists, and outrageous characters, this play is a timeless crowd-pleaser that showcases the best of physical and situational comedy.

Content Warning: Mild adult humor and innuendo typical of British farce.

Note From Director: This is a very physical show. Most characters run, fall, get carried, get punched, roll around on the ground, etc. Dialects will be used. Ages are flexible and will depend on audition turnout and performance.
