YEOVIL-based Lost Lady Society brings The Saviour, a new comedy musical on a tour which continues at Ilchester Town Hall on Friday 16th and Saturday 17th December.

The play is set in a struggling family-run chip shop that faces an unexpected crisis — no potatoes
This heartfelt and hilarious musical has been cooked up through collaboration with the Yeovil community.

Diving into the chaos that ensues through “potato-gate”, The Saviour 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 order 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 on the unique challenges faced by these often-overlooked groups. It’s funny because it’s true!

At its heart, this play offers a large portion of community spirit and comedy with pop music on the side!
