Sheila's Island

Sheila's Island by Tim Firth

Laughter at every missed turn!

A foggy bonfire night and four female executives are Team C in Pennine Mineral Water Ltd.'s annual outward-bound team-building weekend. Sheila has been nominated team leader and, using her cryptic crossword-solving skills, has unwittingly stranded her team on an island in the Lake District.

Wet, cold and hungry, the girls seek to survive by making weapons out of a bra and a spatula, and making a rescue flag with a plastic plate and a toasting fork. The stresses bring out the best and the worst in them all; truths are told and dirty linen aired. What is Julie’s husband really doing in Aldi? How do you catch fish with a mobile phone that’s run out of battery? And why are they on this team-building course when they could be at a spa? Directed by Jill Laurie Evenings at 7.30pm
