Titled 鈥榃hose Room Is This Anyway?鈥 the comedy has been written by Hull playwright Mark Lister 鈥 known to the society as actor and director Alan Harrison. Mark turned to writing over eight years ago and has written a number of plays for the society including the musical, Moving On. 鈥淚've written straight comedy and this latest one has a farcical element to it.鈥 said Mark. 鈥淚t鈥檚 larger than life so a lot of the laughs come from the silly business, some of the idiotic things that people do in this play.鈥

The confusion that ensues builds to a complexity of mistaken identities, death defying falls and general mayhem. Actress Pamela Wilde, who plays the medium Ada Pollack, joined the society over 30 years ago and has played a variety of roles but assumes her best role in characterising the older female personality. 鈥淚 am a bit dippy so I鈥檓 probably related to Ada somehow. She just came very naturally to me. 鈥淚 find character acting very easy, dramatic roles are harder.鈥 added Pamela.
