Alison Skilbeck in ‘Are There More Of You’ at Friars’ gate, Kilmallock on may 2.

Described by playwright Alan Ayckbourn as "brilliantly observed, richly comic characters, all played to painful perfection, a wonderful evening'", Friars’ Gate looks forward to hosting the comedy 'Are There More Of You?' on Thursday, 2nd May at 8pm, written and performed by Alison Skilbeck.

The play is a tale of four women, living utterly different lives, linked, it seems, only by a postcode, though all on the 'verge of a nervous breakthrough'. First there is Claire, bright, abandoned Ambassador's wife, with blood on her hands; Italian Sophia, serving egg 'n' chips by day and osso bucco and Verdi by night, while upstairs Mamma seems set to last forever; Sara, the local Spirit Weaver, all sweetness and light, unless you tangle with her; and Sam, bluff northern business woman, who's always got on with men, but seems to be going home alone.

"Go see how character comedy acting is done! " Miranda Hart

"... the script and performance that brings these four women to vivid life are sharply funny, often poignant and always engaging" - Oxford Times
