Charley's Aunt is a farce that first graced the stages in London in 1892, and moved to Broadway and Paris in 1893. The story centres around a Charley and Jack who want to date young ladies. In order to do so respectfully they require a chaperone and they convince their friend Lord Fancourt Babberley a.k.a. Babbs, to impersonate Charley's aunt in order to do so. Plot twists include the arrival of the real aunt and romantic interest from wealthy gentlemen.
The three stars of the show David de Paiva (Babbs), David McClenaghan (Charley) and Dibyaudh Das (Jack) join Katt Cullen in the studio on the WRS Breakfast Show.
