'The Saviour'

The Saviour is a heartfelt and hilarious new play with songs from Lost Lady Society.

The show has been cooked up through collaboration with the Yeovil community. Set in a struggling family-run chip shop that faces an unexpected crisis — no potatoes!

Diving into the chaos that ensues through potato-gate, the show looks at resilience, marginalisation, and the strength of rural communities. Through the lens of a family business on the brink, the play reflects the feelings of isolation that many in Yeovil and similar towns feel. all with a side of witty west country banter.

With nearly half of Somerset’s population living in rural areas and a significant portion aged over 65, The Saviour sheds light and on the unique challenges faced by these often-overlooked groups. It’s funny because it’s true!

At its heart, this play is offers a large portion of community spirit and comedy with pop music on the side! Come along to witness the humour, quiet strength and unity that can emerge even in the toughest times.
