'LOVE, lust, sex and money in the 'gay Paris' of the daring and hedonistic 1920s' is the setting for The Merry Widow at The Theatre in Chipping Norton this weekend.

Curtain Call's own artistic director Robert Martin-Oliver is presenting a 'racy' new translation of Franz Lehar's comedy about the Baron Zeta's attempts to make sure the wealthy Hanna Glawari marries a Pontevedrian to keep her money in the country.

It starts at 7.30pm on April 9 and 10. Tickets, £12, are available from the box office on 01608 642350.
