This weekend, July 6 and 7, at the Newcastle Community Cinema, Belvoir Players present Sink or Slim, a classic Sam Cree comedy set in the 1960s in a Health Farm run by Mrs Babbington, a formidable lady who rules with a rod of iron and who feeds her pet poodle better than her paying guests. We meet the Major, Millie the dippy maid, Willie the handyman and a Swedish masseuse called Hildie. Crazy craic and lots of laughs.
