The Rangiora Players will be presenting the theatrical version of the British comedy classic, "The Vicar of Dibley" this November. The play takes the form of three acts, each containing a much-loved episode from the television series:
- The Arrival - The new Vicar arrives in Dibley and Oh my God! - she's a woman. David Horton the pompous parish committee Chairman states "This is outrageous - I won't have my village used like some laboratory animal to see if women vicars 'work!'". And so we begin.
- The Easter Bunny - Do you believe in the Easter Bunny? Dibley apparently has a bona fide Easter Bunny causing Vicar Geraldine to think she has stumbled into the X Files. Beliefs are really tested and marriage vows are taken. Who by I wonder?
- Winter - The Dibley parish committee plan the annual Christmas "Show" which leads to some interesting and colourful suggestions. Results, as you would expect are nothing like what was planned. Similar to what happened 2000 years ago - but nothing like it. Happy Days.
The Vicar of Dibley runs from the 23rd November to the 26th at the Rangiora Town Hall. Tickets are available through the Rangiora Players' website or through John Harrington Showcase Jewellers on High Street, Rangiora (cash only). Performances start at 7.30pm with a 2.30pm matinee on the Saturday. Tickets are $20, matinee is $15.
