Ian Dickens Productions presents the revival of the smash-hit comedy The Tart and the Vicar’s Wife which has not been on tour since the 80s. Starring  Linda Armstrong (The Royal), Matt Healy (the bad boy of Emmerdale), Marcus Hutton (Brookside) and Sarah Jane Buckley (HollyOaks) The Tart & The Vicar’s Wife is an hilarious evening’s entertainment intertwined with a topical ‘credit-crunch’ theme that will strike a chord everybody.
 
Glenda and her husband Robert Parry were the archetypal successful couple; him an affluent businessman, her the glam ‘exec’ wife with all the trappings of wealth, until Robert decides to devote his life to God and become a vicar after being delivered unscathed from an horrendous car crash. Glenda consequently finds herself thrust into a complete transformation, struggling to make ends meet and dealing with her new identity crisis.
 
When Robert leaves for a four-week seminar, Glenda turns to her friends for support, all of whom are in similar financial distress. Whilst Robert is away the action is constantly interrupted by the appearance of the vicar’s curate, Henry, to great comic effect. When a millionaire lottery winner turns up to seek the reverend’s help in exorcising his haunted manor house, he meets Glenda and her friends who end up baring their souls to him and discovering just how far they will go for money!

Cast change Bernie Nolan will no longer be in the production due to commitments with NOLANS tour.
