The police are left stumped, but Mrs Wilberforce becomes wise to their ruse and Marcus concludes that there is only one way to keep the old lady quiet.

With only her parrot, General Gordon, to help her, Mrs Wilberforce is alone with five desperate men.

The Ladykillers is a new stage adaptation of the Ealing Studios classic film of 1954 and is written by the creator of Father Ted.
