Dinner! Darlings! Dinner!

A solo show written and performed by Harrogate-born Josephine PembrokeWelcome to the wonderful world of glamorous dining with ex showgirl Sindy. A sparkling guest list, cocktails, canapés and music (show tunes and pop), sprinkled with showbiz gossip. It’s time to don your Kaftan and delve in the 1970s, when being a hostess really did mean the mostest. Will this dinner party be a dream come true for aspirational Sindy? Or will it turn into chaos?Dinner! Darlings! Dinner! was premiered at Brighton Fringe 2024. In London it has shown at The Tabard Theatre and Riverside Studios W6. Josephine developed her show with an Arts Council Lottery Grant. The show is directed by acting legend Linda Marlowe aged 84 (Decadence by Stephen Berkoff, Syvie Carter, Eastenders).‘Josephine is thoroughly enjoyable to watch and has a magical charm and wit. Her writing rivals Alan Bennett, I only wish I had written this clever show’ - Anto Buckley (Musical Director of Frank’s Closet)‘A Martini quaffing, name dropping, canape pushing force of nature. Josephine Pembroke casts a delightfully deranged dinner party spell that sings, dances and boozes her audience into a riotous heap of: chuckles, guffaws and belly-laughs. A fabulous world where mirth induced madness meets Rissoles Pompadour. Make mine a large one.’ - Murray Lachlan Young (Playwright and Poet)
