Win tickets to Beau Jest

1:28pm Wednesday 7th May 2008

This May the Hackney Empire Theatre proudly presents James Sherman's hit rom-com Beau Jest, which played to sell out audiences Off-Broadway.

Mr and Mrs Goldman want the best for their teacher daughter Sarah, including her beau. They will be happy with whoever she chooses as long as he is a good Jewish boy.

Unfortunately Sarah is dating Chris, who doesn't match this requirement. But what is a girl to do?

To hide her gentile boyfriend Sarah calls an escort service to find a candidate to impersonate a Jewish boyfriend. When Bob arrives at her door, a series of hilarious events unfold.

Sarah discovers Bob is not actually Jewish and doesn't know any of the customs, while Bob discovers he is not escorting an old lady to dinner but instead becoming a surrogate boyfriend.

Sarah scrambles to tell Bob everything he needs to know about their relationship before her parents arrive and the grilling begins Will they get found out?

Has Sarah told Bob all he needs to know?

Will Bob know his Kaddesh from his Yachtz?

And will it all end in tears?

Starring Adam Rayner (Mistresses- BBC TV, The Line of Beauty- BBC TV, and the forthcoming series of Dr Who) this is a comedy for everyone.
