The Holly And The Ivy
PHILIP MADOC, Tom Butcher, Zoie Kennedy, Corrinne Wicks in Holly & The IvyBy Wynyard Browne. Directed by Michael Lunney
Now in it’s tenth triumphant year!
Award winning Middle Ground Theatre Company bring you their highly acclaimed production of The Holly & the Ivy.
Set in a Norfolk vicarage on Christmas Eve 1947, the vicar’s family gather for the festive season. Peace and goodwill radiates from the warm-hearted elderly vicar, cared for by his young daughter. But with the arrival of two irritable aunts and an errant daughter the emotional veneer is peeled away. As skeletons tumble from closets and stones are turned over, family members are forced to confront their regrets and secret anxieties. Even the lovable vicar is not immune to the stresses and strains of a ‘normal’ family Christmas.
This atmospheric and absorbing human story, which stars that doyen of Welsh actors Philip Madoc along with Tom Butcher (The Bill / Doctors), Zoie Kennedy (The Royal) and Corrinne Wicks (Doctors), is a perfect winter warmer for the festive season.
