Two years later than planned, East Kilbride Rep Theatre Club will raise the curtain on their pre-lockdown play, Ladies' Day .
The local amateur theatre group are thrilled to announce they will be back treading the boards at the Village Theatre from March 30.
Hazel Brown from the group told Lanarkshire Live: "We will be presenting the Amanda Whittington play Ladies’ Day , almost exactly two years late!
"This was the play in rehearsal when lockdown was announced. The cast and crew were so disappointed although no one would have believed it would be so long before we could stage it.
"There have been a few changes in the cast including some people new to the club."
This hilarious tale takes place in 2005, the year the Royal Ascot Racecourse was being refurbished and the meeting was relocated to York.
For Pearl, Jan, Shelley and Linda, there are dreams of life beyond the Fish factory where they work, surely they could go to Ladies' Day and mix with the toffs?
As this bittersweet day unfolds, the champagne flows, secrets spill out that no-one would have suspected.
Hazel added: "We have also decided to try out a Saturday Matinee instead of a Saturday evening so if you fancy lunch before the theatre or an early dinner afterwards, our matinee kicks off at 3pm. Of course we’re also on Wednesday to Friday at the normal time.
"We’d be delighted to see you all there."
Ladies' Day runs at East Kilbride Village Theatre from March 30 to April 2 at 7.30pm Wednesday to Friday and Saturday at 3pm.
Tickets priced £12.00/£10 are available from the Box Office on 01355 610 00/248 669 or head online.
