It’s the swinging 60s and Sister George is a beloved character on a popular BBC radio programme; a cheerful district nurse who cycles about the countryside singing hymns and doing good. In her private life June Buckridge the actress, is a swaggering, foul-mouthed, alcoholic in a long-term relationship with her partner Alice ‘Childie’ McNaught.
Due to low ratings, cutbacks and June’s own bad behaviour the BBC decides to kill Sister George on the series. A visit from Miss Mercy Croft, a no-nonsense network executive bearing bad news sends June into meltdown, which results in Alice’s retreating into the arms of Mercy.
This is a community production presented by CADS
