PLAYWRIGHT Alan Ayckbourn's 71st play is to premiere at Scarborough's Stephen Joseph Theatre.
The third play in the theatre’s Things That Go Bump In The Night season, Life and Beth, is to open on July 17.
It follows the misfortunes of recently widowed Beth - will she make it through her first Christmas alone? Even the cat has walked out.
The family rally round but her alcoholic sister-in-law, accident prone son and his truculent girlfriend make it hard for her to maintain her welcoming smile.
Add in the local lovesick vicar and a further unexpected and uninvited guest and Beth is in for a Christmas she will never forget.
Life and Beth will be directed by Alan Ayckbourn and stars Susie Blake, Ruth Gibson, Liza Goddard, Ian Hogg, Adrian McLoughlin and Richard Stacey.
It will run in repertory with Haunting Julia and Snake in the Grass until August 30.
Tickets are from £9 from (01723) 370541.
