The Great British Country Fete is part of a new season at the Bush, and will premiere alongside plays by Anthony Weigh and Elaine Murphy.

Anthea Williams directs, following the success of 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover, also at The Bush. The Great British Country Fete takes a mischievous look at country life in Britain with its “melting pot of personalities”. The show will run from 2nd-14th August, with a following tour. Theatre tickets are on sale now.

Writer Russell Kane is best known for his success as a comedian, receiving three separate award nominations at the Edinburgh festival, and appearing with regular stand up spot on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! Kane has recently finished touring with a spoof Shakespeare show set in Essex called Fakespeare: The Tragickal Saveings of King Nigel.
