Our 2003 show was the ever-popular Me & My Girl.
"What a show! Rarely can an audience have laughed so much at a local production ... a joy to watch"
[Rachel O'Connor, Wharfedale & Airedale Observer]
This version of the show, with its revised book by Stephen Fry, was first
presented at the Leicester Haymarket Theatre in 1985, in a hugely popular
production staring Robert Lindsay and Emma Thompson. It later transferred
to the Adelphi Theatre in London, where it enjoyed a long and sucessful
run.
Bill Snibson, a Lambeth costermonger, is revealed to be the new Earl of
Hareford and his newly-discovered aristocratic relations are horified. Bringing
him to Hareford Hall, they attempt to educate Bill in the ways of the gentry
and to seperate him from his cockney girlfriend Sally. The result? Chaos
of the most comical kind! With a host of hilarious characters, witty one-liners
and several toe-tapping, uplifting songs (including the famous Lambeth
Walk, The Sun Has Got His Hat On and Leaning On A Lampost),
Me & My Girl is a sublime and sunny treat for
all fans of musical comedy.
"Even the acerbic Ann Robinson wouldn't be able to find a weakest link in this show."
[Rachel O'Connor, Wharfedale & Airedale Observer]
"Guiseley AOS's finest show for years. Outstanding!"
