The Players have again found a hilarious comedy for their summer production. Caught in the Net is the sequel to Run For Your Wife
and finds our bigamist taxi-driver, John Smith, keeping two families (one in Wimbledon and another in Streatham) happy and blissfully unaware of each others existence. However, his teenage children, one by each of the two wives, have met on the Internet and are determined to see each other in person, especially as it transpires that they have so much in common - same surname, taxi-driver dad of the same age, etc! When it dawns on John that they are about to met, he plunges into a hell-hole of his own making in order to keep them apart. His saviour could be Stanley, his lodger. Stanley is about to go on holiday with his decrepit old father, who turns up thinking he is already at the guest house. The ever-spiralling situation gets increasingly out of-hand as John busts a gut to juggle with the truth.
The cast have been in fits of laughter during rehearsals and so will the audience during performances.
