Sue Perkins • 31 Oct • Swansea Grand Theatre


Sue - the No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Spectacles - is here to celebrate the publication of her new travel memoir East of Croydon. Sharing her extraordinary adventures from the Himalayas to Hong Kong where she explores the tranquil Mekong River, the less tranquil streets of Varanasi and meets a selection of randy hermits and shamans.


Three towering talents play a cast of thousands in this new comedy of Biblical proportions by the writer of the Olivier Award-winning West End hit The 39 Steps. A travelling theatre troupe of two actors and an opera singer arrive by camel in the ancient town of Cardiff to masterfully enact the greatest story ever told. Join the absurdly talented Maurice Rose (Hugh Dennis), the alarmingly unpredictable Ronald Bream RAC (John Marquez), and the distinguished diva Mrs Doreen Small (Lesley Garrett), in a hilarious Christmas comedy that conjures up the sublime, the ridiculous and the truly angelic.
