The Brothers are BACK! After sold out performances, and stellar reviews for their theatrical debut last year, Better Than We? Wey! Productions returns for an encore performance of Tom, Dick and Harry at the Central Bank Auditorium from Friday 30th September – Sunday 2nd October.
In this “fall out of your seat laughing” comedy written by Michael Cooney and Ray Cooney, directed by theatre stalwart Trevon C. Jugmohan of First Instinct Productions, Tom and his wife are about to adopt a baby and convince the adoption agency that they will make good parents. It all seems pretty straightforward until Tom’s errant brothers get involved. Throw in alcohol, illegal immigrants and a corpse and you’ll be crying with laughter in this fast-paced farce.
In this dynamic new theatre group, the lead actors worked for several years under the directorship of the late Raymond Choo Kong. The talented cast includes Kearn Samuel, Nicholas Subero, Arnold “Pinny” Goindhan, Kevon S. Brooks, Mark Nottingham, Kyle Hernandez, Cindy F. Daniel, Shevonne Tricia Metivier, Paula Hamilton-Smith and Gervais Aleong, while the technical team boasts Rachel Elcock and Keshala Mahabir, shepherded by Rachel Bascombe-Walters as Production Manager.
Tickets for Tom, Dick and Harry are NOW AVAILABLE. The cost is $150 for individuals with a special price of $200 for couples. Three shows ONLY so get your tickets NOW!!! [Rated PG 13]
