Congratulations once again to the cast and crew of the Big Little Theatre Company on their latest standout season of Two Gentlemen of Verona. Always pushing the boundaries and achieving outstanding performances that you all can be very proud of. Our first performance where the audience shared the performance space on stage making it the ultimate in intimate theatre. So well done and clearly well received by the sold out audience. Cant wait for the next production.

The Big Little Theatre Company presents the funniest show you will see this year

Friday 21st & 22nd April 7.30pm

Saturday 22nd April 2.00pm

Hailed as one of the funniest productions in the history of London Theatre, The Big Little Theatre Company are proud indeed to bring this multi award winning crazy comedy to the Ashburton Trust Event Centre’s stage. We promise something for everyone. From live music, provided by the hugely talented Wayne Pannett and his band supported by our Waynette dancers, to riotous slapstick comedy to delight those young and young at heart. Please come and join us for a great couple of hours of entertainment where we promise to make you laugh and laugh some more at the antics of the permanently ravenous Francis Henshall and his attempts to keep two jobs, protect a fugitive, unite two lovers – one in disguise – earn a crust and win the girl. All this whilst being hampered by a very, very old waiter with a dodgy ticker, a hapless band of helpers, a failed actor and a petty crook!
