A WARM and witty new play starts a four-week run at Birmingham Repertory Theatre this week.

Getting to the Foot of the Mountain, by Lisa Evans, is being staged at The Door until June 18.

When Danielle was a child, three women loomed large in her life - her gritty, responsible mother, wild-child aunt and their best friend.

Now a young woman herself and facing the break-up of another relationship, Danielle takes stock of her childhood years.

Performances are at 7.45pm Monday to Saturday with a matinee at 2.45pm on Saturday, May 25, and an After Dark performance on Wednesday, May 22.

Tickets cost £2.99-£9.50 on 0121 236 4455.
