'Allo 'Allo - 4-7 November 2026

We are excited to kick off the new season celebrating 80 years of the Guildonian Players with the much loved 'Allo 'Allo at The Little Theatre, which will be running from 4-7 November at 8pm nightly plus 2.30pm Saturday Matinee. 

Based on the TV series and featuring so many of your favourite characters, all is not well at the Café René ... they have stashed a priceless portrait stolen by the Nazis in a sausage in their cellar, where two British airmen remain in hiding until the Resistance can repatriate them. Communications with London using the wireless that is disguised as a cockatoo add to the confusion ... and news that the Führer is scheduled to visit the town brings extra peril - René must summon all the wit he can muster to save his cafe - and his life!

Our Final Tale - The Franklin's Tale

The Franklin's Tale

A happily married couple make a very sensible agreement: honesty, respect … and absolutely no dramatic complications. Naturally, everything immediately becomes complicated. Enter a lovestruck admirer, a throwaway “impossible” promise (remove every dangerous rock from the coastline? !), and just enough magic to turn a casual joke into a full-blown romantic crisis. What follows is a chain reaction of noble gestures, impossible dilemmas, and people being far too honourable for their own good—until everyone is basically competing to be the nicest, most self-sacrificing person in medieval Europe.

The Friar's Tale - Our Fifth Tale

In The Friar’s Tale, we meet a gloriously shady Summoner who spends his days inventing fines, chasing bribes, and generally proving that “morals” are more of a loose suggestion. Naturally, whilst out extorting money from the poor, he meets a cheerful new companion, an archer… who casually reveals he’s a Fiend from hell. They swear friendship and continue on, collecting whatever folks might give them.
