www.milborneportopera.littleboxoffice.com Based on the 1984 film, A Private Function, Betty Blue Eyes is a joyous mix of post-war nostalgia and very British humour with toe-tapping numbers that will stay with you long after the curtain falls. Where else would you find members of the royal family sharing the stage with a porcine dream and a chiropodist taking on the town council while his mother-in-law steals his sandwiches? The story marries farce and fantasy, seduction and snobbery, in a rib tickling and ultimately heartwarming adventure that will send you home with a smile on your face and belief in the goodness of humanity restored.
