Synopsis

Based on the author's earlier Respecting Your Piers, Curtain Up is the hilarious story of five women who inherit equal shares in a dilapidated theatre and plan to bring it back to life again.

They try various fund-raising schemes but their most ambitious is to hold a concert featuring local talent and a world-famous star who agrees to appear for no fee However, their plans go awry and it's a race to keep their audience from guessing the truth of the matter.

A fast-paced and very funny comedy with five great roles for women.
