Murwillumbah Theatre Company in association with Comic relief presents The Vicar of Dibley on Friday 25th May, 1st, 2nd, 8th & 9th June at 7.30pm with two matinees on Sunday 3rd & 10th June at 2.00pm. 

When their Vicar passed away in the middle of a service, the inhabitants of the small Oxfordshire village of Dibley expected his replacement to be another old man with a beard, a bible and bad breath.  So, when a boisterous female minister with a bob-cut and a magificent bosum comes to serve in the eccentric, conservative small village's church, mayhem and comedy are sure to follow.  MTC's stage version of this hilarious, yet heart-warming BBC TV sitcom features all the eccentric, yet lovable characters, including Alice, the blonde dippy verger, Owen the earthy local farmer and the stuttering Jim who prefaces most remarks with "no-no-no-no-yes"!  And of course there's the inimitable vicar herself.

Opening night is dress up night!  So come dressed as a Dibley character or as a simple villager!  Prizes for the most recognizable/authentic!  Get a group together, bring your nibbles, take-aways and drinks (alcohol permitted) and have a great night out. 

Price: $15.00

Time: 2pm Matinee to 7.30pm
