Keighley Playhouse is proud to announce the upcoming production of "Busybody" a delightful comedy by Jack Popplewell. Set to captivate audiences from 6th-11th May, this timeless classic promises an evening filled with laughter, intrigue, and clever twists.
Directed by Josh Breeze, "Busybody" follows the story of a nosy cleaning lady who inadvertently becomes entangled in a murder mystery. As she snoops around, trying to uncover clues, hilarity ensues, leading to unexpected revelations and uproarious moments.
Featuring a talented cast of local actors, including Debbie Ellison as Mrs Piper and Dale Chadwick as Superintendent Baxter, the production brings to life Popplewell's witty dialogue and clever character dynamics. From the moment the curtain rises, audiences will be drawn into a world where nothing is as it seems, and everyone has something to hide.
The plot centres on a voluble cleaning woman who keeps telling the cops how to mind their business and who steps forward with the right evidence in every pinch. She lives in the basement of the office building she cleans and one night finds a body. By the time the police arrive, there is no body and no evidence. The wrong alarms are sent out, murdered men turn up alive, and the whole thing is chalked up to the cleaning woman's imagination until an unidentified body is discovered on a distant hill and the cleaning woman uncovers more evidence in the course of her duties. Is the company owner staging his own murder? Or did he kill his wife's lover? Is the lover a firm employee or someone else? Where do the two female assistants fit in? What is the wife withholding?
"Busybody" promises to be an evening of sheer entertainment, appealing to theatregoers of all ages. Whether you're a seasoned theatre enthusiast or someone looking for a night of laughter and excitement, this production guarantees to leave you thoroughly entertained.
"We are thrilled to bring Jack Popplewell's 'Busybody' to the stage," said Josh Breeze, Director of the production. "It's a hilarious comedy that keeps audiences guessing until the very end. The cast and crew have put in tremendous effort to bring this story to life, and we can't wait to share it with our audience."
