Laughter cannot be stopped in Brooke Hills Playhouse’s second season offering of “No Sex Please, We’re British,” written by Anthony Marriott and Alistair Foot. This delightful British comedy runs June 20-22 and 27-29.
A young bride who lives above a bank with her husband, the assistant bank manager, innocently sends a mail order off for some Scandinavian glassware. What she receives is Scandinavian pornography. The plot revolves around what is to be done with the veritable floods of pornography, books, photographs, films. and eventually girls that threaten to engulf the young, happy couple. Complications also ensue from the young man’s mother, his boss, a visiting bank inspector, a police superintendent, and a muddled friend who does everything right, all of which works up to a hilarious ending of closed or slamming doors. It’s a farce!
