The renowned Thomian Society of Colombo brings on stage one of the most expensive and yet completely sought after plays on stage on Sunday, 8 July at 7.30p.m. at Waters Edge.
Feroze Kamardeen’s renowned H.G.H.E. Pusswedilla has hitherto drawn packed houses at the Lionel Wendt Theatre. Many were known to have gone away disappointed for the lack of tickets, but now there is an opportunity to buy tickets before they are snapped up and to get on the bandwagon early to witness ‘Thank You for Voting – Part 3’ in the World Peece Sumitt series which, in this instance, unfolds a brand new chapter, hitherto unseen and unheard. This is, therefore, not just another opportunity, but an exclusive and unique one.
The Thomian Society of Colombo, as in the past, will maintain that finesse and high standard and be counted upon to provide an exotic dinner theatre with humour that will let you fall off your chair. What is envisaged is a delectable sit down dinner preceded by a standing ovation for H.E. Chaminda Pusswedilla who, in the theatre, has decided to organise a fresh World Peece Sumitt on the strength of the hugely ‘successful’ sumitt he organised a few months ago. His Secretary, the long-suffering Cyril Nitharamasuffering, however, has already scheduled many other meetings for H.E. The opposition leader comes to see the President with a litany of woes; the Minister in charge of school books, school bags and school buses has had yet another brilliant idea which threatens to bring the entire school system to a grinding halt ; the minister in charge of hens, chickens and eggs cannot control the spiralling cost and worse, the head of the Arsikland Central Bank has no clue as to what is happening with the economy or the stock exchange. Added to this list, the British PM wants Arsikland to be more tolerant of homosexuals; the Iranian President’s vocabulary is stifled and Hon. Ajith Luvdaasa from the main opposition party attempts to threaten H.E. Pusswedilla. There is much more that cannot be revealed in print as it has to be encountered firsthand!
Every table will be adorned by chocolates, cheese, biscuits, bites, 1 litre of Johnnie Walker Black Label Scotch Whisky, Vodka and Wine too. Every ten tickets purchased will provide entitlement to a reserved table. None should ever miss this incomparable evening. It will be long remembered as the most humorous entertainer ever with an ambience of its own. There is already a rush on for tickets. Those who wish to be there when it happens and to enjoy good food, good fun and good fellowship should contact Anusha on 2574083.
On all previous occasions, tickets for the Dinner Theatres of the Thomian Society of Colombo sold out way ahead of the event. This time will be no exception with the proceeds being channeled to provide scholarships for bright and needy students.
