Now, they’re back and this time they really have to go The Full Monty…live on stage.
Simon Beaufoy, the Oscar winning writer of the film, has gone all the way with this hilarious and heartfelt adaptation that’s getting standing ovations every night.
With songs from the film by Donna Summer, Hot Chocolate and Tom Jones, this award-winning production is one huge package of laughs and emotion direct from London’s West End starring Gary Lucy, Andrew Dunn, Louis Emerick, Rupert Hill, Martin Miller and Bobby Schofield.
It seems lazy to use the much-bandied term “feel-good” but this truly is, in the best possible sense; it perfectly balances the humour and pathos to provide a thoroughly entertaining and truly uplifting evening at the theatre. An unexpected delight for a rainy September night, I can’t recommend it highly enough.
The stage production contains some of your favourite moments from the film. I won’t say exactly what they might be, but you won’t be disappointed. And if you want to know…yes, they do really go for the Full Monty!
King's Theatre, Glasgow from Tuesday September 23, 2014, until Saturday October 4, 2014. More info: www.theambassadors.com/kings/
