Just Happy To Be Here, a Leeds based theatre company, is to perform ‘Sugar Daddies’ at Whitby Pavilion on Thursday 24th September 2015.
Sugar Daddies is a 2003 play by the award winning British playwright Alan Ayckbourn, in which a student forms a friendship with a rich man over three times her age – and is known to have a sinister past.
After a hit and run accident, naive country girl Sasha comes to the aid of ex-villain Val who is using a bogus identity as an ex-policeman. Sasha befriends Val and welcomes him into her home; overcome by her generosity and childlike innocence, he showers Sasha with lavish gifts whilst his rival Ashley, knowing of Val’s sordid past, seeks to protect Sasha from this potential danger.
This will be the third visit this year for the Just Happy To Be Here theatre company. Past performances include ‘Teechers’ and ‘Snake In The Grass’, both of which were well received by a busy Pavilion Theatre audience.
Tickets for ‘Sugar Daddies’ are on sale now, priced at £10 and £9 for concessions. Tickets can be purchased from the Pavilion’s Box Office, via www.whitbypavilion.co.uk or by calling 01947 458 899.
