In November 2007, Diana Raffle's full length farce, Round the Houses, was performed at the Hazlitt Theatre, Maidstone, by The Willington Players. The farce drew audiences of over 1,000 people over a five night run. Typically, like many of Diana's farces, it has a 'Carry On' style and had the audiences rolling in the aisles.
