THE FULL MONTY, which also won the UK Theatre Award for Best Touring Production, is currently touring the UK for the very last time. The tour is due to visit the Theatre Royal Nottingham from Monday 4 to Saturday 9 February 2019.
The all-star cast will be led once again by Gary Lucy (Luke Morgan in Hollyoaks, also EastEnders, The Bill, Footballers’ Wives, and winner of Dancing on Ice), who has made the part of Gaz his own. Andrew Dunn (Tony in Dinnerladies, Alastair Campbell in Bremner, Bird and Fortune) returns as Gerald, and Louis Emerick (Mike Thornberry in Coronation Street, Norman the Doorman in Benidorm,Brookside and Last of the Summer Wine) returns as Horse. Joe Gill (Finn Barton in Emmerdale) plays Lomper, Kai Owen (Rhys inTorchwood, Pete in Hollyoaks) plays Dave and James Redmond (Finn in Hollyoaks, Abs Denham in Casualty) plays the role of Guy.
Joining them will be Liz Carney as Jean, Amy Thompson as Mandy, Bryonie Pritchard as Linda and Keeley Fitzgerald as Sharon. Through these women, we see the other side of the story, the challenging journeys they face to stand by their men and how they ultimately take their hats off to them all. Other cast members include Andrew Ashford, Stephen Donald, Alex Frost, Fraser Kellyand Lee Toomes.
THE FULL MONTY is Simon Beaufoy’s first work for the theatre. His screen credits include: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Salmon Fishing in Yemen, Battle of the Sexes and Slumdog Millionaire as well as The Full Monty.
This new production will be directed by Rupert Hill whose directing credits include Leatherbird, Molehills, and Rolling with the Punches. Rupert is also an actor, best known for his role as Jamie Baldwin in Coronation Street. He has been a previous cast member in THE FULL MONTY stage production.
Robert Jones (National Theatre and RSC) designs the production with choreography by Ian West (The Blues Brothers and The Play What I Wrote), lighting by Colin Grenfell (theatre award winner for Black Watch) and sound by Luke Swaffield (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time).
THE FULL MONTY, about six out-of-work, impoverished steelworkers from Sheffield with nothing to lose, took the world by storm and has become one of Britain’s most successful shows. Based on his highly acclaimed, smash-hit film, this stage adaptation by Oscar-winning writer Simon Beaufoy is a hilarious and heartfelt production, which receives standing ovations every night. The play features the iconic music from the film, by Donna Summer, Hot Chocolate and Tom Jones.
The Tony, Olivier and Evening Standard award-winning producers David Pugh & Dafydd Rogers present this Sheffield Theatres Production.
