AN ‘absurd’ comedy is on at the New Millennium Theatre, Waterfoot, this week.

Alan Ayckbourn’s festive comedy Absurd Person Singular is being staged by Rossendale Players until Saturday.

Described as ‘a wild comedy of behind the scenes decisions’, three-act play Absurd Person Singular is about three married couples and is set in three different kitchens over three successive Christmas Eves.

Director John Price is leading a ‘terrific’ ensemble cast.

Tickets cost £7 from Anne on 01706 228720 or from Watts Newsagents next door to the theatre on Burnley Road East, Waterfoot.
