» Come On, Jeeves
Spiffing fun with Jeeves at the Devonshire Park Theatre, Eastbourne
PG Wodehouse’s classic character, Jeeves, returns in a new production of Come On, Jeeves at the Devonshire Park Theatre, Eastbourne from 14–19 July. Victor Spinetti and well-loved British star Anita Harris lead the cast in this spiffing tale.
While Bertie Wooster is out of town, the inimitable Jeeves, is on loan to the Earl of Towcaster. The Earl, known as Bill, has been losing heavily on the horses. Aided by the flawless Jeeves, Bill decides to become a bookie.
With an unpaid bet, a furious punter on his heels, a loud, wealthy, widowed American clairvoyant wanting to buy his crumbling mansion, and his fiancée and family asking awkward questions, this could be a challenging day for Bill. One which only Jeeves can sort out in his usual impeccable style.
The cast also features Judy Buxton (On the Up), Derren Nesbitt (Where Eagles Dare) and Myfanwy Waring (The Bill). Jeeves is played by Richard Pocock who starred in 2006’s Eastbourne pantomime, Sleeping Beauty.
Come On, Jeeves at the Devonshire Park Theatre, Eastbourne, Monday 14–Saturday 19 July. Nightly performances at 7:45pm, Wednesday and Saturday matinee at 2:30pm. Tickets priced from £13.50–£19.50, with concessions available, including exclusive multi-buy free ticket offer.
