Choreographed by Nicola Scoggins
Based on the cult hit film of the same name, The Full Monty is filled with honest affection, engaging melodies and the most highly anticipated closing number of any show.
While spying on their wives at a "Girls' Night Out," Jerry and Dave, two steelworkers from Buffalo, New York, come up with a bold and unclothed way to make some quick cash. In preparing, they find themselves extremely exposed; not merely physically but emotionally. As they conquer their fears, self-consciousness and prejudices, the men come to discover that they're stronger as a group, and the strength that they find in each other gives them the individual courage to "let it go."
The Full Monty is a story full of heart. With a raucous mix of razor-sharp humor and toe-tapping pizzazz, this heartwarming, upbeat comedy is a must for everyone.
THIS SHOW CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE AND SOME NUDITY
Tickets: £17 (incl. booking fees)
(£16 concessions on Tuesday Evening & Saturday Matinee)
13-17 November 2018
Directed by Benjamin Hardy
Choreographed by Carl Brierley-Edwards
Musically Directed by Pete Fines
Conducted by Gareth Wynne
9 to 5 The Musical, with music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, is based on the seminal 1980 hit movie. Set in the late 1970s, this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking and even a little romantic.
Pushed to the boiling point, three female coworkers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy – giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains "otherwise engaged," the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. Hey, a girl can scheme, can't she?
WARNING: YOU WILL HAVE FUN AT THIS SHOW!
Tickets: £17 (incl. booking fees)
(£16 concessions on Tuesday Evening & Saturday Matinee)
