The Naked Truth Set in a pole dancing class The Naked Truth is a brilliantly funny Play about sisterhood A top class Cast, teams up stars from Stage and Screen; including Lisa Riley (the larger than life star of Emmerdale and Fat Friends ); Julie Buckfield ( Grange Hill and Hollyoaks ), Gemma Wardle ( Family Affairs and Life On Mars ), Samantha Seager ( Coronation Street ); Jayne Tunnicliffe ( Coronation Street ) and introducing Lucy Rusedski in an all female cast.
It's a woman thing, as five very different women struggle hilariously to conquer pole dancing for a Charity event to raise awareness and money for breast cancer. As their stories unfold and unravel, they share laughter and tears in this funny but sad and ultimately moving play. The Naked Truth is a poignant and uplifting comedy, a call to all women and celebrating strength through adversity.
It's a show for women, about women, that men absolutely must see.Grand Theatre Tel: 01253 290190 Book Tickets

See How They Run - Set in the village of Merton-cum-Middlewick, See How They Run is a comedy of mistaken identities as it is besieged by an escaped prisoner of war, a visiting bishop, an actor and a locum priest, all at the same time! However, parish spinster Miss Skillon makes a call to the vicar with what is, to her mind, a far more pressing matter - she is outraged by the dalliences of the vicar's wife - a former actress. Starring Jeffrey Holland (Hi-De-Hi and You Rang M'Lord), Fraser Hines (Emmerdale), Guy Siner (Lieutenant Gruber in 'Allo 'Allo) and Michael Sharvell-Martin (No Place Like Home).
