Happiest Days of Your Life

Hawarden Players, are heading back to school for their latest play, The Happiest Days of Your Life by John Dighton and, if you think that the title of the play sounds a little familiar then you’d be right! The play itself was turned into a very memorable film of the same title starring Margaret Rutherford and Alastair Sim back in the good old days of black and white.

The story begins when evacuated all girls school St Swithens is sent to reside with all boys school Hilary Hall. When the two schools collide the stage is set for all sorts of hilarity! Girls meet boys, Masters meet Mistresses and it’s chisels drawn and tuck boxes at twenty paces! Add to that the mystery ‘tool bag treacler’, a militant caretaker and two sets of unexpected parents and you have a recipe for a rip roaring farce that is guaranteed to make watching this one of the happiest and memorable days for our audience too!

Our 2026 Pantomime will be Robin Hood!, written by Fiona Burdsall!

If you go down to the woods tonight…..you’re sure of an evening of hilarity and fun with the cast of the Hawarden Players’ new panto Robin Hood!

Hawarden Players have taken their panto in a subtle new direction which means you can now partake of a libation from our licenced bar whilst you enjoy the antics of Nanny Fanny, Nurse to the Lady Marian. She will go to any lengths to protect not just her ward, but also the elusive key to Marian’s chastity, despite the efforts of the sleazy Sheriff and our tree dwelling Robin and his motley crew. 

So book your tickets for a night of cheeky grown up giggles, I mean where else can you find a trio of singing nuns, two Johns and a couple of overworked and underappreciated Henchmen wandering in the woods…..? Hawarden, that’s where!

We have limited availability for all performances, please call the Box Office (01244 543229)
