Cardale Athletic Social Club – See Ho They Run 1949

A theatre programme for See How They Run, performed at the Cardale Athletic Social Club on 23 November 1949. The cast included Molly Porter, Pat Ainsworth, Arthur Bentley and Frank Wix.

Philip King’s classic farce of vicars, mistaken identities and an escaped German prisoner set in a country vicarage was a firm favourite with amateur companies after the war.

Club and amateur programmes such as this capture the spirit of post-war community theatre and are a delightful addition to a collection of old theatre programmes.
