Hale Centre Theatre in Gilbert kicks off the new year with the uproarious comedy See How They Run. The classic Brit-com features over-the-top mistaken identities, an escaped Russian spy, a Cockney maid, a straight-laced bishop, a blonde American actress who is married to a vicar, a snooty parishioner who is a scold, and an old friend of the actress who is now in the army. Shenanigans and riotous chaos ensue when four of the characters assume clergymen's attire, including the Russian spy. The arrival of the stately bishop doesn't calm things down but further leads to mirthful gossip, danger and mishaps, climaxing into an absolute all-out laugh-riot.
