Fancy catching the likes of comedians DAVE GORMAN, SHAPPI KHORSANDI, MARK WATSON, ANDY PARSONS or CHRIS ADDISON?

What about amazing a capella singing from THE MAGNETS, “sit down” comedy from the legendary BARRY CRYER, or twisted cabaret from THE TIGER LILLIES?

Gorgeous flamenco dance? A spot of Shakespeare? Gripping modern drama? A family show about vampire pirates!!?!?

Well, if so, you are very much in luck, as the Autumn Season 2011 at Norwich Playhouse has all these and a lot more besides! Click HERE to browse through all our shows coming up between now and January. There is something for every theatre-hungry audience member (and all their mates!).
