Alan Bennett's PEOPLE to Open 22 Oct at Marlowe Theatre
Following a sell-out run at the National Theatre and a record-breaking National Theatre Live cinema broadcast, the acclaimed comedy stars Sian Phillips as Lady Dorothy Stacpoole. Set in her decaying stately home, she has to decide what to do with the property: should she hand it over to the National Trust, as her overbearing sister wishes, or find a more creative way of making it pay? But people spoil things and Lady Stacpoole does not want them traipsing through her house.
