Andrew Dunn and Shobna Gulati star in

Victoria Wood’s

Take one huge hit sitcom from BBC TV. Place on a stage in a

World Premiere national tour starring Andrew Dunn (Tony)

and Shobna Gulati (Anita) from the cast of the TV series.

Blend in Victoria Wood’s writing, undoubtedly some of the

funniest on television, and whip into a play based on the second

TV series, following the reluctant love story of Bren and Tony,

egged on by Dolly, Jean, Twinkle and Anita.

Mix in caretaker Stan’s words of wisdom and coat with regular

appearances by Phillippa from Human Resources and Petula,

Bren’s dreadful mother, and you have a recipe for madness,

mirth and twelve rounds of toast!

Ronnie Winslow, a thirteen year old naval cadet, is falsely accused of

theft. His father and sister take matters into their own hands to prove

his innocence and to restore the honour of their family’s name.

Based on a real-life legal case, The Winslow Boy is an astonishing

drama about injustice, the force of the establishment and the power

of one family’s love and belief in the truth.

One of the UK’s most versatile actors, Timothy West’s recent stage

credits include most recently Alan Bennett’s The Old Country, Death

Of A Salesman, Macbeth, King Lear at the National Theatre, The Birthday

Party and The Master Builder. Among his many television appearances

are Edward VII, Hard Times, Churchill And The Generals, Brass,

Blore MP, Beecham, and most recently The Alan Clarke Diaries,

Bedtime and Bleak House. He stars in the 2009 film Endgame.

The strong supporting cast includes Adrian Lukis, Mr Wickham from

the BBC’s celebrated production of Pride And Predudice.

Who would have

thought other

peoples’ letters

could be so

enthralling!

Starring Edward Woodwardand Michelle Dotrice

The lives of Lawyer Andrew Makepeace Ladd III and artist Melissa

Gardner life have been entwined since they met in second grade.

Love Letters brings to life their correspondence over fifty years,

chronicling hopes, dreams and disappointments; from teenage

valentines to the letters and postcards that mark the trials of

adulthood, marriage and divorce, right up to a still separated

middle age. The story of their bittersweet relationship gradually

unfolds from what was written, what is between the lines –

and what was left unsaid.

From its premiere in 1989, Love Letters has had Broadway’s top stars,

including Mel Gibson and Kathleen Turner, clamouring for its leading

roles. In this production theatre’s top husband and wife team - Edward

Woodward and Michelle Dotrice - star as Andrew and Melissa.

Who would have thought other peoples’ letters could

be so enthralling!

AN ALL-STAR CAST INA CLASSIC COMEDY HIT

Written by one of Britain’s favourite play-writing teams of the Sixties,

Hugh and Margaret Williams, The Grass Is Greener proved to be a

huge hit in London’s West End and went on to be adapted into an

award-winning movie starring Cary Grant, Deborah Kerr,

Robert Mitchum and Jean Simmons.

Heading the cast is Liza Goddard (Bergerac, Take Three Women,

Yes, Honestly, Take Three Girls, The Brothers, Dr Who, Midsomer

Murders). Liza is joined by Christopher Cazenove (The Regiment,

The Duchess Of Duke Street, Dynasty, Judge John Deed).

Jack Ellis (Bad Girls and Coronation Street) and Sophie Ward

(Holby City and Heartbeat) complete the all-star cast.

When an impoverished English Earl opens his stately home to the

public, he risks more than the loss of his privacy, as his wife falls

madly in love with an irresistible American millionaire. In a desperate

attempt to save his marriage, the Earl decides to host a house-party,

enlisting the help of an old flame, with dangerous and hilarious

consequences! Throw in a wily old butler, and you have one of

the funniest, classic feel-good comedies of the era.

THE AWARD-WINNINGTAP DANCING COMEDY

‘Comedyof theyear’ Evening Standard

In a dusty church hall, ex-professional dancer Mavis Turner

holds her weekly tap class. Every Thursday, in stumbles her

well-intentioned but not overly talented troupe – the awkward

but hugely enthusiastic Lynne, snooty Vera, streetwise Maxine

and the rest of the group – all brought together to dance as

if no one is watching, and hopefully no-one ever will!

That’s until they’re invited to perform at a charity gala. As

disbelief is replaced by sheer terror, can this bunch of amateurs

pull together and put on the performance of a lifetime?

Starring Jessie Wallace, who won the nation’s hearts as the

vivacious Kat Slater in EastEnders, Brian Capron, known to

millions for his award-winning portrayal of the sinister Richard

Hillman in Coronation Street, and Olivier Award-nominated

West End star Rosemary Ashe, this hilariously funny and

heart-warming play proves that, in dancing as in life,

it’s always better to follow your own tune.

Following the Agatha Christie Theatre Company’s hugely successful

productions of The Hollow, The Unexpected Guest and And Then There

Were None, the fourth instalment in the highly acclaimed series

promises to be the most intriguing and entertaining yet.

When Clarissa discovers a dead body in her drawing-room, she

tries to dispose of it before her Foreign Office diplomat husband

returns home with a government VIP guest in tow.

Equipped with an over-active imagination, Clarissa finds real life

murder a little too hard to handle! And, once she has persuaded

her houseguests to help her, it soon becomes apparent that the

dead man was not unknown to everyone amongst them.

As the web of deceit starts to unravel, Clarissa pulls her friends into

a desperate race to unveil the murderer and solve the mystery before

the police discover the felony and arrest her as their prime suspect!

Presented by the official Agatha Christie Theatre Company,

the all-star cast features Denis Lill (The Royal, Survivors,

Outside Edge); Melanie Gutteridge, best known for her role as

PC Emma Keane in The Bill; Catherine Shipton famous for her

long-standing and highly acclaimed role as Duffy in Casualty;

Ben Nealon (Soldier Soldier) and Bruce Montague (Butterflies).

THE WEST END’S BIGGEST COMEDY HIT

One of the West End’s biggest comedy hits is set to take the UK

by storm as Bill Kenwright’s critically acclaimed ‘savagely funny’,

‘seriously hilarious’, and ‘dazzling’ production of Alan

Ayckbourn’s Absurd Person Singular comes to Bromley.

It’s party time at the Hopcrofts and the only present they want

is to succeed in scaling the social ladder. Havoc ensues at the

drinks party they hold to impress their high-powered friends - but

that’s nothing compared to what happens over the next two years

when the friends return their hospitality!

Featuring an all star cast including Lisa Kay, best-known as

Nurse Carol Cassidy in ITV1’s Heartbeat, Elizabeth Carling,

well known for her lead performances in Casualty, Goodnight

Sweetheart and Barbara, Matthew Cottle, who starred in the

hilarious BBC comedy Game On, Stephen Beckett, well-known

from Coronation Street and The Bill, Deborah Grant, whose

numerous starring roles include Bergerac and the BBC’s hit

series Not Going Out and Robert Duncan, best known as Gus

from the Channel Four cult comedy hit Drop the Dead Donkey.

A classic comedy with outrageous characters -

this is Ayckbourn at his best!

‘Put on yourdancing shoesand get ondown there!’Mail On Sunday

Step back in time and get ready to dance

with Ray Davies’ award-winning musical hit Come Dancing.

Originally produced at Theatre Royal Stratford East, Come Dancing

was a sell-out sensation that received rave reviews and public

acclaim at every spectacular performance!

Come Dancing is written by and stars the former front man of

The Kinks, Ray Davies, who penned some of the greatest songs

in pop history.

Come Dancing takes us back to the Palais Ballrooms of the 1950s,

where thousands would dance and romance at a time when rock ’n’

roll was bursting onto the scene. Featuring impressive dance routines

and a heart warming tale of teenage romance, the story is full of

classic hits and wonderful new songs in a show as timeless as its star.

Davies has always been known for his ability to tell stories with

his music, and this unforgettable musical is no different.

Come Dancing is as moving as it is rocking!
