THE CHELTENHAM Everyman Theatre is making sure it's “Business As Usual” in Slimbridge this month with a new play that is a tale of courage, grit and a liberal smattering of humour.

With their husbands and boyfriends fighting for freedom in France during World War 1, the womenfolk of Gloucestershire determine that it must be Business As Usual on the home front.

Presented by the Everyman Theatre’s professional company of actors, it commemorates the centenary of the First World War, as part of the Gloucestershire Remembers World War One project. In collaboration with the Wilson Art Gallery and Museum, the Soldiers of Gloucestershire Museum, the History Press and Gloucestershire Archives.

This incredible show is suitable for all ages and is on at Slimbridge Village Hall on Thursday, May 14. Doors open 7pm for 7.30pm.Tickets from 01453 890 239.
