The musical play Check Out Girls by Louise Roche is being made a song and dance of by the Bardfield Players from Thursday, November 21 to Saturday, November 23.
Set in the aisles of a supermarket, called Freshways, the story is about the lives and the loves of those who work there.
It happens in the run-up to a singles night.
