A spokesman said: “The Empty Nesters’ Club offers a humorous yet poignant look at the pain of the ‘empty nest’ and what befalls parents after the children have outgrown the family home.

“Newly bereft mum Vicky Barret, whose daughter has recently left for university in London, prepares for the inaugural meeting of her new support group – the titular Empty Nesters’ Club – by reflecting on the upheaval of letting go of her not-so-little girl.”

Tickets are priced at £20.50. For more information or to book, call the box office on 01253 794221 or book online at www.lowtherpavilion.co.uk.
