Top of PageMrs Gerrish's Guesthouse
Synopsis:
It's 1958 and although the summer season at Weston-Super-Mare is drawing to a close, Mrs. Gerrish finds herself able to display the No Vacancies sign. Visitors to her guest house include the suave and debonair Mr. Thomas Terry, the intrepid Hurley family from West Bromwich (who arrive shoe-horned into their motorcycle combination) and the Great Mephysto, star of the Winter Gardens Summertime Jamboree . With Mrs Gerrish s Guesthouse, the Ministry of Entertainment s 4th show, they leave the ration-ridden 1940s behind and streak into the stratosphere of 1950s sophistication. Featuring the upbeat, optimistic songs of the period and based on true stories, this is a chance to come and relive that age of innocence when we never had it so good .

Synopsis:
Yes, We Have No Bananas is the last of the Ministry's hugely successful wartime trilogy. Set in Herbert and Daughter, a grocer's store in Weymouth in 1944, Yes, We Have No Bananas is a light-hearted look at the build up to D-Day on the south coast. Featuring tales from both sides of the counter, the local pub and the dance floor, and accompanied by music from the era, this production will entertain all ages.
