In this sequel to 'Run For Your Wife', London taxi driver John Smith is still living a double life, split between wives Mary and Barbara, and he is just as determined that they should never find out about each other. But that's about to become much more difficult: he now has a teenage daughter with Mary and a teenage son with Barbara, and through the new-fangled wonder of the Internet, they have made contact. Fascinated by how similar their dads are, they want to meet, and while John is desperate to stop them, he daren't explain why! Roping in his old pal Stanley as a reluctant accomplice only serves to complicate the situation. Will he get away with it all over again, or is the game finally up?

Access to the Studio is via Manor Lane, off Highfield Avenue, and chiefly on foot.
There is a small parking area on site, so if you have mobility problems, please get in touch and we can make arrangements for you to park there.
From Highfield Avenue, head along Manor Lane in the direction of Lime Avenue until you reach the double gates at the corner of the site.
There is signage just inside for the various groups who use the site, including ourselves.
Once you're through the gate, make your way up the path to the ramp at the top.
Continue between two single-storey huts - the Boxing Club on your left and 'We Are Music' (formerly the Rock School) on your right till you reach the two-storey brick building, which is the Studio.
Go round this building to the opposite corner where you will find the entrance.
Turn left on entering, and our main performance/rehearsal space is just through the door.
To join, simply let us have your name and e-mail address, or your postal address if you don't have e-mail, and we will send you news of our forthcoming productions, as well as social and fund-raising events. We won't swamp you with messages or pass your details on to anyone else, and if you ever need to unsubscribe, just let us know.
