By Beverley Green.

Marjorie Pardoe runs an over-50s self-help group, or so she thinks. The help she gives is a matter of opinion, but the only opinion that matter to Marjorie is her own.

 

Fifty and Nifty meet weekly above the local pub, members come and go but Marjorie remains firm in her beliefs and teachings. Life does not begin at 50, it ends and it’s Marjorie’s mission to make everyone is aware of how to behave when it does. Her comments to members are blunt but her tongue is as sharp as a razor. She takes no prisoners in this hilarious play and if you didn’t know how to act when you came in you certainly will by the time you leave.
