DAD'S ARMY
The 40th Anniversary Production
By Arrangement with Jimmy Perry and David Croft
Directed by James Robert Carson
Don’t Panic! They’re back! A 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 star-studded cast, including Leslie Grantham, 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 now’s your chance.
This is gentle – ultimately life-affirming comedy – so who do you think you are kidding Mr. Hitler?
