We'll tell you as soon as tickets go on sale:

Commemorating the 25th anniversary of his untimely final curtain, Morecambe celebrates the extraordinary life of Britain’s best loved comic – Eric Morecambe. From humble beginnings as a child-performer on Morecambe Pier to the glitz and glamour of international stardom and the mantle of ‘Britain’s best-loved comic’, Morecambe follows young Eric’s eventful journey from ‘Lily of Laguna’ to ‘Andre Preview’, from tumbleweed to Glenda Jackson. It’s a moving portrait of an affectionate lad with funny bones, a born entertainer, a big-hearted perfectionist … the tall one with glasses.

Featuring the multi-talented Bob Golding, who could have been born to play Eric, penned by the brilliant Tim Whitnall and directed by solo-maestro Guy Masterson, Morecambe is a must-see for all fans of classic British comedy.

**** ‘The production has channelled not just Morecambe, but what Morecambe and Wise came to represent: 28 million viewers on Christmas Day, communal laughter, a more innocent age.  Golding gives the performance of a lifetime.’  - Guardian

Spectacularly wonderful, Bob Golding has hit the bullseye with this stunning portrayal of Eric.’ - Ronnie Corbett

‘Bob Golding is amazing as Morecambe…classic.’ Jimmy Carr

‘Superb isn’t the word.  I’ll have to think of something better.  Not a wrong note.’ Barry Cryer

‘Eric is brought to life again with all his humour and charm.  Quite brilliant.’ Nicholas Parsons
