Double Dickens at Rusty Pig

Rusty Pig is hosting a comedy night - and it's all about Dickens!

The ethical restaurant in Ottery St Mary is welcoming Devon's Adaptable Theatre on Friday 15th July to perform for diners. ‘Double Dickens’ features Ian Pearce and Tim Knight in two one man shows.

In Doctor Marigold Ian plays a Victorian travelling salesman who rescues a poor deaf child from ‘misery and degradation’. In the second show, Tim Knight tells the woeful tale of Mr Pickwick’s trial for breach of promise in The Trial of Pickwick.

Double Dickens opened in October 2012 at New Theatre, Exeter. In January 2012 the show moved to villages in Devon and Dorset. Doctor Marigold has been performed at the Edinburgh Fringe to great reviews.

The evening, which starts at 7pm, will include tapas and pudding at a cost of £25 per person, including the show. To book, call 01404 815580.
