Dad's Army Marches On *2010*
by By arrangement with Jimmy Perry and David Croft

Director James Robert Carson | Designer Nancy Surman

The boys are back in town! To celebrate 70 years of the Home Guard, Dad’s Army is returning to the stage with a brand new production of the classic sitcom. The same team who cleverly breathed life into the Lost Episodes are dusting down their uniforms and polishing their medals to bring these much loved characters back to the Mercury Theatre.
Leslie Grantham will be putting his best foot forward as Pte. Walker while Timothy Kightley, who rightly won handsome praise from the critics, will reprise his role as Capt. Mainwaring.
The play features more classic episodes handpicked by legendary writers Jimmy Perry and David Croft and includes adaptations of their own personal favourites, Branded and Mum’s Army. Sign up now for an evening of nostalgic pleasure and madcap mayhem with the would-be heroes of Walmington-on-Sea.
£9.50 - £20.50
