CAMPING capers in Fordingbridge are set to have audiences in stitches.

The Fordingbridge Players will be taking centre stage in the group's latest production of Richard James’s Happy Campers from tonight (Thursday), at 7.30pm.

It will run for three consecutive nights at the drama studio at Burgate School and Sixth Form.

The cast has thrown themselves into their roles as campers in the hilarious play about a suburban family sent to the Yorkshire countryside to scatter Dad’s ashes.

Tickets are £8 and are available from Jessica’s, High Street, Fordingbridge, or by calling 01425 652395.

The Fordingbridge Players has thanked its sponsor Bassetts Estate Agents for its continued support and also IN-EXCESS, Wolvercroft World of Plants and Camping World for providing the set materials.
