The Ladykillers tells the story of the eccentric little old lady Mrs Wilberforce who lives alone with her parrots in a strange lopsided house in King’s Cross. Her life is turned upside down by the arrival of Professor Marcus and his four friends, who between them make up the most unlikely group of criminals. Planning the heist of a security van, they decide to use Mrs Wilberforce as cover and involve her unwittingly in the plot. Things do not go well and the Professor’s plan starts to unravel in spectacular and hilarious fashion.
 
This 60th anniversary stage production of the original Ealing Comedy film, has been adapted by Graham Linehan who is best known for his work on the TV comedy series Father Ted, The IT Crowd & Count Arthur Strong.
