GRADS presents "French Without Tears"

Award-winning director Barry Park is directing French Without Tears, a delightful romantic comedy, written by the master playwright Sir Terence Rattigan, for GRADS, opening at Stirling Theatre, Innaloo on 1st July,

A group of Englishmen are trying to learn French in the home of Monsieur Maingot in his villa on the South Coast of France. The problem, if it is a problem, is Diana, the sister of one of the younger men. She is, as one character puts it, 'rather fast'.

The men are terrified of her to the same extent that they desire her. She begins the play attached to Kit but when Bill arrives, she decides she must have him too. When confronted, she admits or pretends - we can't tell - that it's always been Alan she wants. Meanwhile, Maingot’s daughter, Jacqueline, is keen on Kit, who doesn’t seem to notice her, and Babe, Diana’s brother, tries to conceal his feelings… It’s all very complicated!

Don’t miss a rare chance to see Rattigan’s ravishing 1930s comedy of young love and stiff upper lips!

Presented by GRADS, by arrangement with ORiGiN™ Theatrical on behalf of Samuel French, a Concord Theatricals Company, French Without Tears runs at the Stirling Theatre, Morris Place, Innaloo, 1st to 16th July: at 7.30pm (Wednesday to Saturday) and at 2.00pm on Sundays.
