What's on in Ipplepen

Devon, England

Ipplepen sits quietly in Devon where the pace is slower than a snail on a wet Tuesday but there are still plenty of reasons to drop by. The Ipplepen Community Hub has been hosting all sorts of local gatherings for years so you can catch a show without needing a map or a compass. It's the sort of place where neighbours actually know each other's names and what's cooking in the kitchen. Family days and market stalls usually pop up near the village green on a weekend afternoon. Near Here keeps track of what's going on right here so you don't have to waste time scrolling through endless lists. Just grab a coffee, head down the road, and see who's putting on an event this week.

Hay Fever – A Hilarious Dive into Family Chaos

Step into the eccentric world of Noël Coward’s classic comedy, Hay Fever, where family dynamics collide with outrageous social interactions. This delightful play, set in the 1920s, offers a sharp and witty exploration of the absurdities of human relationships. At the heart of Hay Fever is the Bliss family, a group of lovable eccentrics living in a country house. The matriarch, Judith Bliss, is a self-absorbed retired actress, whose theatrical flair influences her entire household. When unsuspecting guests are invited for the weekend, chaos ensues as her family’s quirks and their guests’ personalities clash in uproarious ways. As the weekend unfolds, misunderstandings, hidden desires, and comedic confrontations lead to a whirlwind of laughter and mayhem. Each character, from the self-important guests to the oblivious family members, adds layers of humour and poignancy to the narrative, making it a delightful spectacle. Set against the backdrop of the Roaring Twenties, enjoy a glimpse into a bygone era filled with glamour and charm. Coward’s sharp script is filled with clever wordplay and memorable one-liners that will have you laughing from start to finish. The play explores universal issues of love, family, and the absurdities of social gatherings, making it relatable to all audiences. Don’t miss your chance to see Hay Fever – a delightful blend of humour, chaos, and heartfelt moments.
