When Tom and Barbara Good decide to exchange the pressures of the rat race for an alternative, more sustainable way of living, they set about turning their suburban home in Surbiton into a model of self-sufficiency. Growing their own fruit and veg, keeping livestock in the garden, making their own clothes and even generating their own electricity from manure! It’s the good life for them – but not so much for Margo and Jerry Leadbetter who live next door, and are desperately trying to maintain the Surbiton status quo of middle-class living!
Jeremy Sams’ stage play, based on the hugely popular sitcom by John Esmonde and Bob Larbey, reunites the well-loved characters (not forgetting Geraldine the goat) as they get themselves into and out of scrapes – some old, some new, all will make you smile!
