One of unsung heroes of British theatre brings his play to Lancaster’s The Dukes

Touring theatre company The John Godber Company is bringing Godber's hilarious 'Perfect Pitch' to The Dukes, Lancaster from October 16-19.

Originally written in the late 90s and described as “ A triumph “ by The Sunday Times, this autumn John Godber re-envisions his hilarious play for a 2024 audience.

"When teacher Matt borrows his parent's caravan for a week on the Yorkshire coast with partner Rose, they were expecting four days of hill running and total de-stress. But with a Tribfest taking place nearby, Grant and Steph’s pop-up tent is an unwelcome addition to their perfect pitch. Campers and caravaners clash in this classic comedy set on an eroding coastline."
