THE Badapple Theatre Company stages its new one-man show, The Daily Bread, at St Mary’s Church in Norton, Stockton, tomorrow (7pm).

The original comedy drama by Kate Bramley tells the story of master baker August de Ville, played by Colin Scott-Moncrieff, whose tiny village bakery is the talk of the town as WI ladies flock for miles to sample his sumptuous sponge and beautiful buns.

But does the baker hide a dark secret? That he shares the same name as a hated newspaper magnate responsible for hiding the truth of the Bottledale bank crash is, August claims, just a sad coincidence.

The play is part of Badapple’s No Hall Too Small Tour which will visit more than 30 venues in England.

Established in 1998, the professional theatre company is based in North Yorkshire and specialises in inventive, high quality, original, comic performances specifically designed for rural touring.

Tickets are available on 01642 535273 or 07773 491175 from Dawn Seymour and at the Good Taste gift shop in Norton High Street
