Harper's Locket

The gang turn their attentions to a period romance, a classic tale of family, duty and love across the class divide.

Featuring: Henry Shields (Chris), Henry Lewis (Robert) & Greg Tannahill (Jonathan).

Press

There is a touch of the Mrs Brown's Boys about this comedy, and the guffawing studio audience seem to be lapping it up. Tonight, the hapless actors are putting on a period romance that ventures across the class divide. The effects soon go wrong, though, as the set threatens to flood and a ceiling fan gets too close for comfort.
