Melanie Munt, as Lance-Constable Angua, and Sam Priestly, in the central role of Corporal Carrot, are in particularly fine form.....while Sean Venning is hysterical as by-the-book guard, Sergeant Colon.

Joseph Kuehn excels in multiple roles varying from the Patrician's Secretary to an assassin.

The clever set design by Pamela Munt and Erik Strauts allows for the required multiple scene changes.

Re-visit all of your old friends (well some of them anyway) in “Men at Arms” – the sequel to “Guards! Guards!”

* Will Lady Ramkin get her man?
* Who are the new recruits to the City Watch?
* Could they have something to do with the Patrician’s new policy of equal employment opportunities for ethnic minority groups?
* For instance, why was Angua recruited? Because she is a w……?
* How will Captain Vimes and his troops save the city of Ankh-Morpork this time? (and from what?)
* Is there any truth to the rumour that clowns can be funny, and assassins deadly? (or was it the other way around?)

Find out the answers to these questions and more by attending Unseen Theatre Company’s production of “Men at Arms”.

Of course you don’t need to have seen “Guards! Guards!” to enjoy the sequel because our dear Footnote will be there to make sure you know exactly what is going on.
