When harassed advertising executive, Timothy Westerby, hits his head during the morning of his daughter's society wedding, he awakens to find himself in the company of Polly Perkins, a 1920's Flapper girl straight out of his current advertising campaign.  It soon becomes all too clear that no one else can see or hear her.  So when another bump on the head transports Timothy back to 1926 and the Savoy hotel, the carefully planned wedding preparations disintegrate into chaos as friends and family attempt to lead Timothy back to reality, and his daughter down the aisle, before the newly-arrived 'in-laws' abandon the wedding.  'A fiendishly clever farce that gets madder and funnier as it goes along.' - Daily Mirror.

                                                                         Roy Thompson

This is the fourth play Roy Thompson has directed for FTG.  His first was in June 1995, the smash comedy hit "Two weeks with the Queen".  Since then he has continued to direct many plays around Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula and has become a well-known, very respected director.  Roy returned to directing for FTG in June 2000, presenting the black comedy "Status Quo Vadis" and again in March 2001 with the very funny, female version of "The Odd Couple".  FTG is very pleased to have Roy direct "There Goes The Bride", the group’s last production of its 60th anniversary year.
