They were Britain’s last line of defence! They were Dad’s Army!

Don’t Panic! They’re back! An hilarious treat for the whole family with the welcome return of one of the most popular and revered British comedies of all time, Dad’s Army. The original BBC TV series first screened in 1968 soon became a comedy classic, running for nearly ten years and capturing the hearts of millions with its gentle, timeless humour and bulldog spirit.

Lovingly recreated for the stage, this lavish new production with a starstudded cast, including Leslie Grantham (Dirty Den, EastEnders), breathes new life into the misadventures of our Home Guard platoon in their fictional South Coast town of Walmington-on-Sea. This production will offer a unique opportunity to see the lost episodes after the originals were erased by the BBC. So, unless you saw them back in 1969, this will be your only chance!

This is gentle – ultimately life-affirming comedy – so who do you think you are kidding Mr. Hitler?
