Washington Theatre Group presents Taking Charlie

By Neil Warhurst adapted from the Radio Play in Collaboration with Goofus
16th-18th June 2022 at 7:30pm
Ticket Price: £6

A dark comic fantasy set in 1978 about two Eastern European unemployed auto-mechanics who kidnap and ransom the body of silent film star Charlie Chaplin in order to set up their own garage.

Based on a real life but very bad idea that will leave you with two useful life lessons; firstly do not dig up dead comedians, and secondly when you’re face to face with a powerful idiot there’s only one thing to do… laugh!

This amateur production of “Taking Charlie” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
