It’s finally here: By the Arrangement with Origin Theatrical, On Behalf of Samuel French, A Concord Theatricals Company.

Blackwood Players will be holding auditions, for the South Australian premiere of  “Some Mothers Do ‘Ave ‘Em ” written by Guy Unsworth, and based on the TV Series by Raymond Allen.

Synopsis

It’s springtime at Frank and Betty’s House. Betty is pregnant but, as she attempts to tell Frank, he is preoccupied by possible newfound fame as a magician.

With guests arriving for dinner and crossed wires all round, priceless misunderstandings are on the menu.
