Proudly present …..

Tiger Aspect Production presents an amateur stage adaptation of the beloved British sitcom, The Vicar of Dibley.

🎭 What’s the play about?

The plot centres around Geraldine Granger, a lively and unconventional vicar who surprises the sleepy village of Dibley by taking over—despite the parish council expecting a male vicar. Much of the comedy stems from Geraldine’s encounters with the eccentric locals and the humorous clash between her progressive views and their traditional ways. The script usually incorporates key moments from the TV show, such as:

• Geraldine’s arrival in Dibley
• Parish council meetings filled with quirky personalities
• Alice and Hugo’s budding romance
• Their famously chaotic wedding

✍️ Playwrights

The adaptation for the stage was written by Ian Gower and Paul Carpenter, drawing inspiration from Richard Curtis and Paul Mayhew-Archer’s original sitcom.

🌟 Main characters featured

• Geraldine Granger (the vicar)
• David Horton (the pompous council chairman)
• Alice Tinker (the lovable but scatterbrained verger)
• Hugo Horton (David’s timid son)
• Jim Trott (“No, no, no, no… yes!”)
• Owen Newitt (straightforward farmer)
• Frank Pickle (fastidious minute-taker)

🎬 Comedy style

This light-hearted production delivers feel-good British humour, often with rapid set changes between the parish hall and vicarage. It preserves the famous jokes and inviting warmth of the television series.
