Following her smash hit Promise and Promiscuity, and after a critically acclaimed Hamilton Gardens Festival run, Olive Copperbottom is back.
Penny Ashton brings her Dickensian-inspired orphaned hero Olive, and a squalid gaggle of hilarious Victorians, to crusty life.
It is described as a rollicking romantic musical journey through 15 gin-soaked characters told with song, dance and questionable personal hygiene.
Or, Oliver meets Blackadder with a saucy feminine twist.
