THE Rowney Green Players begin their production of comedy Shut Your Eyes and Think Of England tonight (Wednesday).

The production runs from tonight until Saturday at the Rowney Green Peace Hall in Rowney Green Lane, Rowney Green, near Alvechurch.

Set in the 70's, Shut Your Eyes and Think of England' follows the tale of Sir Justin Holbrook and his somewhat naive accountant Arthur Pullen.

When Mr. Pullen comes to the office on a Saturday to finish the books for audit, he is astonished to find his employer, Sir Justin Holbrook, in the penthouse flat with a call girl.

Unexpectedly, Lady Holbrook arrives and Holbrook passes the girl off as the second Mrs. Pullen.

A rich Arab sheik is expected and England's entire fate depends on Holbrook signing an agreement with him, but Holbrook suddenly collapses and Pullen has to impersonate him.

The arrival of the real Mrs. Pullen and others leads to an impenetrable maze of confused identities with hilarious twists and turns eventually resulting in Pullen installed, presumably permanently, as Sir Justin with all that entails, including his millions and his glamorous wife.

Tickets cost £7.50 for adults and £6.50 for concessions, with a special offer of all tickets for £5 on tonight.

Performances begin at 7.30pm and tickets are available on 0121 447 7209.
